Abstract
Abstract: People with disabilities (PWD) are the largest minority group in the world, making up 16% of the world's population, an estimated 1.3 billion people. People with disabilities die earlier, have poorer health outcomes, and are more affected by emergencies and natural disasters. Factors contributing to health inequities can be characterized as socioeconomic, political, involve social determinants of health, include higher risk factors, and display a wide spectrum of health system barriers. Too often, health care training programs exclude specific standards for disability training. By mapping the new American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Education with The Core Competencies for Disability Health Care Education , we can provide a synergistic relationship that will prepare future advanced practice nurses to provide effective care to people with disabilities across the lifespan and in every delivery care system.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
