QUESTION

The nurse is preparing a seminar for staff nurses on the issues surrounding global health. What information should the nurse include as important for nurses to know about this topic? (Select all that apply.)

1. Contributes to creating solutions to global health challenges.
2. Identifies progress that has been made in global health problems.
3. Highlights the global health challenges that need to be addressed.
4. Encourages nurses to migrate to other countries to address ongoing health issues.
5. Identifies the relevance of global health concepts in relation to community health.

ANSWER:

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5

It is important for nurses to study global health in order to identify the relevance of global health concepts to nurses’ practice in their local communities, to gain a better understanding of progress that has already been made in addressing global health problems, and to identify the global health challenges that remain to be addressed and how to address them most effectively. Knowledge of global health issues is not supported to encourage nurses to migrate to other countries to address ongoing health issues.
