Supporting nurses across cultures
Wednesday, January 25, 2012
This grant, which runs through June 30, 2014, will be used to maximize the use of CCBC’s simulation technology capabilities; increase retention and graduation rates among minority students in the nursing program; and provide culturally relevant teaching for faculty, staff and students to enhance their sensitivity when communicating with those from other cultures, especially their patients.
“CCBC has been revising its nursing curriculum for the past several years to better reflect the current and future workplace,” said Elizabeth Webster, RNC MS, nursing program coordinator and project director for the grant. “Initially, we tackled the didactic part of the curriculum. This grant will enable us to focus on the clinical education component that is designed to mirror direct patient care and give students a more hands-on, sensory educational experience.”
