Objectives
- Describe the historical development of the Scholars and the significance of its achievements to TCNS, nursing and health care.
- Explain how transcultural nurses can work to promote disease prevention for culturally diverse and underrepresented populations through advocacy and policy engagement.
- Discuss the critical challenge posed by brutalisation in the healthcare sector, particularly with the current nursing shortage and limited resources to culturally competent care.
The TCNS Scholars was founded in October 2004. The presentation describes the philosophy, and objectives undergirding the development of the Scholars within the mission and goals of TCNS. Past achievements of the Scholars and its current initiatives are presented in the context of the discipline, and health and health care. The COVID 19 pandemic and rising chronic disease intensified existing health and health care inequities affecting disadvantaged populations. The global shortage of nurses and healthcare resources have created stressful work environments for staff and their capacity for patient care.
The presentation highlights the need for culturally competent care to mitigate health inequities through advocacy for innovative, culturally-tailored care delivery as well as leadership and engagement in policy making. Cultural competence must be grounded in the knowledge and values of social justice, human rights and health equity. Cultural awareness and commitment to diversity and inclusion are critical to decreasing brutalization and discrimination in healthcare.
