Embedding cultural safety in nursing education: A scoping review of strategies and approaches

This scoping review highlights nurse educators' role in fostering cultural safety and the importance of considering multiple strategies in curricular development. Strategies include practice experiences, simulations, storytelling, and case-based learning. To provide safe nursing care, education must be inclusive and responsive to people of all races, genders, abilities, and sexual orientations. By applying the concept of cultural safety to nursing education, students are required to acknowledge bias and address issues of power, colonialism, racism, and discrimination that exist in healthcare. These findings provide a foundation for future, more focused research. Further studies could expand on this work by evaluating the effectiveness of specific pedagogical strategies and exploring ways to better support nurse educators in promoting culturally safe learning environments.
