The nurse educator knows that one strategy to integrate cultural diversity in nursing is to:
1. Retain students from one cultural background.
2. Work within monocultural frameworks.
3. Recruit and mentor nursing students from diverse cultures.
4. Attract students from other disciplines to nursing.
3
Rationale: Schools of nursing need to integrate content that emphasizes cultural diversity. Educators need to work within multicultural and multidisciplinary frameworks to tackle issues in the "real world." Yet, recruitment and retention of students from diverse cultures continue to be problems in schools of nursing. Nursing faculty can recruit and mentor students from diverse cultures to serve as clinicians, managers, faculty, and leaders who can then serve as role models for other students. One way to attract and educate a diverse student group is to practice diversity in faculty recruitment.
