In a collaborative effort to address the health disparities within 1 urban underserved community, the Hunter-Bellevue School of Nursing, Hunter College, and the Mount Sinai Medical Center organized a health fair. Nursing faculty worked side by side with undergraduate nursing students to offer several health promotion activities, screening, and educational sessions for residents of East Harlem, New York. In addition, nursing students provided individual patient education on nutrition, hand washing hygiene, medication review, and glucometer usage. Educational materials on lifestyle issues (sample meals, maintaining normal blood glucose, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and smoking cessation) were provided. To help bridge the gap between health education and health promotion activities, nursing students, many of whom were bilingual, served as translators for non-English speaking Spanish and Chinese residents. In addition to the new professional partnerships developed, new clinical placements for nursing students were established.
为解决一个城市中服务不足社区的健康差异问题，亨特 - 贝尔维尤护理学院、亨特学院和西奈山医疗中心共同组织了一场健康博览会。护理教员与本科护理专业学生并肩合作，为纽约东哈莱姆区的居民提供了多项健康促进活动、筛查和教育课程。此外，护理专业学生还就营养、洗手卫生、药物复查和血糖仪使用等方面为患者提供了个性化教育。提供了有关生活方式问题的教育材料（示例膳食、维持正常血糖、血压、胆固醇水平以及戒烟）。为弥合健康教育与健康促进活动之间的差距，许多会双语的护理专业学生担任了非英语的西班牙语和中文居民的翻译。除了建立新的专业伙伴关系外，还为护理专业学生设立了新的临床实习岗位。
