Advancing world health through nursing students' study abroad experiences: Shared insights [Symposium]
Abstract
With globalization, the demand for culturally competent nurses who are prepared to provide quality care from a cultural point of view has increased. (Kokko, 2011). Research has shown a deficit of culturally sensitive care leads to "nurses [that] may have ethnocentric and stereotyped attitudes toward patients" (Kokko, 2011, p. 674). The American Association of Colleges of Nursing 2008) Essentials of Baccalaureate Education for Professional Nursing Practice identified global health as an essential core knowledge area for nurses.
This presentation will highlight and discuss our challenges and successes with a variety of clinical sites meeting course outcomes over the years of providing cultural and global experiences for our nursing students.
