Aim:
The purpose of this study was to explore student experiences within a health care disparity simulation, embedded in maternal-child content.
Background:
Health care disparities related to race and ethnicity in the maternal-child population are daunting among African American and Hispanic women.
Method:
Participants completed the Simulation Effectiveness Tool-Modified, a rapid-fire huddle questionnaire, and a demographic instrument. All students participated in structured debriefing.
Results:
Student responses ( n = 69) demonstrated effectiveness in learning via this scenario.
Conclusion:
The rapid-fire huddle and debriefing are important elements when health care disparities are introduced into nursing curricula.

Specialized Care Centers and Settings-II
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...
