This study examined the cultural competence of expatriate nurses using self-reported individual assessment tool, and evaluated if there was an improvement after the educational training provided by nurse educators. Utilizing the Individual Assessment of Cultural Competence tool, questionnaires were administered to nurses (n=584) before the educational training and six months thereafter. A response rate of 90% was obtained. The data revealed that there was no significant difference between pre-test mean score and post-test mean score, (p-value=0.488). However, nurses' self-reported cultural competence was improved, (mean post-test gain = 0.020). Nurses'cultural competence was enhanced through the designed educational training program.
本研究使用自我报告的个人评估工具来检验外派护士的文化能力，并评估在护士教育工作者提供教育培训后文化能力是否有所提高。利用文化能力个人评估工具，在教育培训前和之后六个月向护士（n = 584）发放问卷。获得了90%的回复率。数据显示，测试前平均得分与测试后平均得分之间没有显著差异（p值 = 0.488）。然而，护士自我报告的文化能力有所提高（测试后平均提高 = 0.020）。通过设计的教育培训项目，护士的文化能力得到了增强。
