Week 8 discussion – Global Nursing Opportunities

The Course Outcome covered this week is CO5.

CO5: Discuss the implications of global nursing for healthcare delivery systems. (PO7)

Reflect on the TCN Self-Assessment you completed during Week 2, and determine if your score changed.

Perform an Internet search, and locate one Global Nursing Opportunity sponsored by a professional organization that utilizes nurses as either paid employees or volunteers. Name the organization, and include a working link. In your own words, share the organization’s mission.

Share two contributions you could make to the organization (patients served) based on your current experiences and future career aspirations based on your learning from this course.

Identify personal opportunities for improvement in providing culturally competent care.

Week 7 discussion – Diversity in the Healthcare Workforce

The Course Outcome covered this week is CO2.

CO2: Communicate effectively with culturally diverse individuals, families, and organizations. (PO3)

As nurses, we work with providers and healthcare team members whose native language is not English. In fact, some of you may have interviewed a non-native English speaker for your Course Project. This diversity may lead to challenges with communication and the nurse being “caught in the middle.”

Reflect on your newfound knowledge of transcultural nursing.

Share an example of miscommunication that occurred as a result of this diversity and whether an adverse outcome resulted.

Describe how the miscommunication could have been and will be prevented in the future.
