In 2021, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) added "the impact of climate change on environmental and population health" into The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education. Presently, little guidance exists for nursing faculty new to climate education. The year prior, the Nurses Climate Challenge (NCC)-a campaign to educate 50,000 health professionals about health impacts of climate change-launched the School of Nursing Commitment through a series of focus groups and collaborative content development. With an aim of increasing access to knowledge and tools to support education about the health impacts of climate change, the NCC Commitment partners with nursing schools and provides a community of practice. Partner schools use NCC resources in courses and report the number of students educated. Within three years, 61 nursing schools in 30 states joined the Commitment. Participants included academic health centers, research institutions, multi-state schools, and small private colleges, and programs ranged from AD to PhD. Faculty (1) integrated resources into didactic and clinical settings, such as population or organ-system content, leadership, and policy; and (2) used resources to support assignments. In four years, faculty reported educating over 37,700 students, using NCC resources in 439 educational sessions. The Commitment may be valuable for faculty fulfilling AACN Essentials by bringing climate change to the classroom, community, and bedside. Furthermore, the Commitment may be a replicable model for health professional education and inspiring action on climate change.
2021 年,美国护理学院协会(AACN)将“气候变化对环境和人口健康的影响”纳入《护理学基础:专业护理教育核心能力》。目前,对于新接触气候变化教育的护理教师来说,几乎没有指导。就在前一年,护士气候挑战(NCC)——一项教育 5 万名卫生专业人员了解气候变化对健康影响的运动——通过一系列重点小组和协作内容开发发起了护理学校承诺。为了增加获取知识和工具的机会,以支持有关气候变化对健康影响的教育,NCC 承诺与护理学校合作,并提供一个实践社区。合作学校在课程中使用 NCC 资源,并报告接受教育的学生人数。在三年内,30 个州的 61 所护理学校加入了该承诺。参与者包括学术医疗中心、研究机构、多州学校和小型私立学院,课程范围从 AD 到博士。教师们(1)将资源整合到理论和临床环境中,如人口或器官系统内容、领导力和政策;(2)使用资源支持作业。在四年内,教师报告说,他们使用 NCC 资源在 439 次教育会议上教育了超过 37700 名学生。通过将气候变化带入课堂、社区和床边,该承诺可能对满足 AACN 基础要求的教师具有重要意义。此外,该承诺可能是卫生专业教育的可复制模式,并激励人们采取行动应对气候变化。
