Faculty self-assessed their knowledge and concerns regarding students with disabilities.

Main Results:

Faculty rated the ability of individuals with disabilities to be successful nursing students and professionals moderately (3.2 and 3.4 out of 6).
Faculty reported low knowledge (2.7 out of 6) regarding teaching and accommodating students with disabilities.
Faculty expressed high concern (4.0 out of 6) about nursing students with disabilities.

Conclusions:

Nursing faculty require enhanced training to effectively support students with disabilities.
Addressing faculty knowledge gaps is crucial for creating inclusive nursing educational environments.
