Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Disparities
  • Cultural Competency

Background:

  • Multicultural issues present unique challenges in healthcare.
  • Nurse anesthetists serve increasingly diverse patient populations.
  • Understanding diverse needs is crucial for equitable healthcare delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey nurse anesthesia program directors on multicultural issues.
  • To identify the needs of culturally diverse clients and students.
  • To assess the current state of cultural competency training in programs.

Main Methods:

  • Survey distributed to 90 accredited nurse anesthesia programs in the US and Puerto Rico.
  • Data collected on program directors' perceptions of multicultural issues.
