Social Determinants of Health Within Nursing Curricula: Nurse Educators' Knowledge and Attitudes
Background:
Social determinants of health (SDOH) recently have received national attention. Nursing curricula historically have focused on the mastery of clinical skills, whereas topics related to social justice and equity have been relegated to courses in community health. Little is known about nurse educators' knowledge of SDOH and attitudes about incorporating SDOH content into existing nursing curricula. This study was designed to address identified gaps in knowledge about SDOH and faculty attitudes on including SDOH content into nursing curricula.
Method:
This study used a quantitative cross-sectional design. A sample of 276 nursing faculty participated in this study. Chi-square analysis and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data.
Results:
Overall, knowledge of SDOH was high. Attitudes about including content on SDOH were favorable. Differences in knowledge and attitudes about SDOH were noted when compared by participant demographics.
Conclusion:
More research is needed on effectively incorporating SDOH content into existing nursing curricula. [.
