“…Lack of clarity as to what the curriculum should include, even to the extent of what to call the subject area, was evident. Nairn et al (2004) explore this when considering what they identify as multicultural and anti-racist approaches in nursing education. As they report, evidence is scarce about the efficacy of either approach and remains so, although works, such as that of as well as Nairn et al emphasise the need for both approaches.…”

“…As they report, evidence is scarce about the efficacy of either approach and remains so, although works, such as that of as well as Nairn et al emphasise the need for both approaches. A number of strategies for addressing issues of race, culture and ethnicity in the curriculum are identified by Nairn et al (2004) in their review of the literature, but unless the status of these topics is raised, their inclusion will remain ad hoc and low priority. A key influence on curriculum content is the professional standards and competencies set by the regulatory body which in the United Kingdom is the NMC.…”

Nurses need to be adequately prepared to practise competently in increasingly ethnically diverse communities. This study explored nurse educators' views regarding the extent and nature of preregistration nursing education intended to prepare students for multi-ethnic practice in Wales. A qualitative approach was taken with a purposive sample of programme directors (n ¼ 6), branch leaders and lecturers (n ¼ 25) and practice mentors (n ¼ 35). Data were collected through focus groups, interviews, questionnaire and documentary review. Qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis and three themes were identified: curriculum design and content, a theorypractice gap and personnel and material resources. Findings indicated that knowledge of the most effective way to prepare pre-registration nursing students for practice in multi-ethnic communities is 'work in progress' in Wales. Our findings raise questions about the extent to which the curriculum prepares students to engage with the Welsh social justice agenda. Improved clarity regarding what constitutes an adequate curriculum and improved preparation of nurse educators and mentors to competently and confidently prepare students for working within ethnically diverse communities is required.

“…Research suggests that more fundamental approaches need to be implemented if real progress is to be made. Some of these fundamental change suggestions emerge through the work of Nairn et al (2004), from which we can appreciate an implicit recognition of the tensions inherent in care delivery within the NHS.…”

AbstractPurpose -The paper aims to explore tensions around race, ethnicity, culture and religion and discusses the potential impact on the delivery of quality health care in the UK through the National Health Service (NHS). Design/methodology/approach -This is a conceptual paper that examines how individual and collective resistance may compromise the provision of quality care and performance targets in the NHS with regard to equality and change. Existing literature and previous empirical work by the authors are utilised in order to discuss pertinent issues and propose further research in the area, suggesting appropriate methodologies and research designs. Findings -The performance measurement agenda does not address issues of racism and discrimination faced by NHS staff and customers, effected by both colleagues and the public, which impact upon the delivery and receipt of care within the NHS. Performance measurement methods that do not take into account socio-cultural conditions for those delivering and receiving care are futile. To make such measurement meaningful it is necessary for the NHS to acknowledge and challenge the racism inherent in its service delivery. Research limitations/implications -Problems or limitations of conducting primary research in this field are discussed. Nevertheless, key issues around the need and type of further research in this under-researched area are presented. Practical implications -The paper challenges current performance management practices and suggests alternative ways forward. Originality/value -The paper focuses on an under-researched area and examines the performance measurement literature through ''equality lenses'' and investigates how racism and stereotyping can affect the delivery of quality care.

Racial autobiography, self-narratives on how one learned about the idea of race, has been underutilized as a tool to familiarize and orient students in the process of critical inquiry for nursing research. The aims of this article are to explore how racial autoethnography: (1) repositions students to effect an epistemological change, (2) challenges dominant ideology, and (3) functions as a link between the student and critical theories for use in nursing research. Students engage in and share reflective narrative about a variety of instructional materials used in the course. Reflective narratives are presented in a framework that addresses white racial identity development.
