Transcultural nursing is a discipline that emphasizes culturally competent care for diverse populations, recognizing the influence of culture on health beliefs, values, practices, and outcomes. It requires nurses to respect cultural differences and similarities, but faces challenges in curriculum design, faculty development, and student assessment. This paper explores transcultural nursing education's current state and future directions, addressing the American Association of Colleges of Nursing essentials for integrating cultural content into nursing curricula, reviewing Madeleine Leininger's transcultural nursing theory, diversity, equity, and inclusion concepts, and discussing the main challenges of transcultural nursing education, including lack of student diversity, training, and resources. Strategies to overcome these challenges include interprofessional collaboration, cultural immersion, and evidence-based practice. The paper concludes with how emergency department nurses should incorporate this into practice.
跨文化护理是一门强调为不同人群提供文化能力护理的学科，认识到文化对健康信念、价值观、实践和结果的影响。它要求护士尊重文化差异和相似之处，但在课程设计、教师发展和学生评估方面面临挑战。本文探讨了跨文化护理教育的现状和未来方向，探讨了美国护理学院协会将文化内容纳入护理课程的基本要素，回顾了 Madeleine Leininger 的跨文化护理理论、多样性、公平和包容的概念，并讨论了跨文化护理教育的主要挑战，包括学生多样性、培训和资源的缺乏。克服这些挑战的策略包括跨专业合作、文化沉浸和循证实践。本文最后讨论了急诊护士应如何将这一理念融入实践。
