There is a critical need to increase diversity in the nursing workforce to better address racial health disparities.
To provide academic institutions with practical recommendations to foster a collaborative environment and essential resources for and in support of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) scholars.
We examine the experiences of three Black nurse scholars, at a research-intensive university in an urban area during the COVID-19 pandemic and civil unrest in the United States.
Findings suggest barriers exist, which negatively impact workplace climate, collaboration and mentoring for BIPOC nursing scholars. Guided by a Black feminist perspective and utilizing existing literature, we recommend strategies to enhance workplace climate, to develop culturally aware collaboration, and to center mentoring as the foundation for BIPOC nurse scholar success.
This article acknowledges that a crucial step in addressing health disparities is successful support of and collaboration with BIPOC nurse scholars.
增加护理人员队伍的多样性对于更好地解决种族健康差异至关重要。
为学术机构提供切实可行的建议,以营造协作环境,并为支持黑人、原住民和有色人种(BIPOC)学者提供必要的资源。
我们研究了 COVID-19 大流行和美国民权动乱期间,在一个城市地区的研究密集型大学的三位黑人护士学者的经历。
研究结果表明,存在障碍,这对 BIPOC 护理学者的工作场所氛围、合作和指导产生负面影响。本研究以黑人女权主义观点为指导,并利用现有文献,建议采取策略来改善工作场所氛围,发展具有文化意识的合作,并将指导作为 BIPOC 护士学者成功的基础。
本文承认,解决健康差异的关键步骤是成功支持和与 BIPOC 护士学者合作。
