Nursing Graduate Student Publishes Article
Aishia Wall, FNP/DNP student, published an article titled, “Practicing Cultural Humility
Toward Black and Brown Communities in the ED” in the April issue of Nursing 2023.
She developed the article while enrolled in NUR 610 Professional Writing with Dr. Elizabeth Heavey. In the emergency department (ED), triage and treatment disparities between ethnic and racial groups are common. Approaching patients with cultural humility is one way to help address these concerning differences.
The article explores the best practices for adopting and demonstrating cultural humility in nursing care, particularly in areas that function as a gateway to access, such as the ED. These changes can improve health outcomes for historically marginalized groups.
