Incorporating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Within Community Health Nursing Simulation.

Background: Undergraduate nursing institutions face difficulties providing learners with community and public health nursing clinical opportunities. An opportunity existed to improve a senior-level undergraduate community and public health nursing course by developing alternative clinical teaching-learning experiences that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Method: Utilizing theory and evidence-based practice, a simulation emulating a community home health visitation allowed learners to function as members of a health care team who provide care for a family in their home setting.

Results: The results indicate that all learners met project objectives, and 88% of learners reported increased self-efficacy related to the project's topics after implementation. Learner reflections offered their perception of the experience.

Conclusion: A community and public health nursing teaching-learning project provided learners with clinical hours by completing a simulation learning experience incorporating diversity, equity, and inclusion through exposure to patient inequities within the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) community.
