“…Therefore, nursing education needs to be developed to address racism as a social determinant of health in the undergraduate and graduate curricula to educate the next generation of nursing (Brown et al, 2019;Lopez, 2020;Morley et al, 2020). By doing this, students get opportunities to develop their knowledge about racism in healthcare and to address fears that some expressed about patients from of ethnic minority groups (DiAngelo, 2012;Russell & Flynt Wallington, 2022).

If a complaint of racism is reported, Chief executive officers of these associations have the responsibility to investigate their members’ behaviors to determine whether their Code of Ethics and the Canadian Human Rights code were violated with consequences for violations.…”

“…Nurses must deal with problematic frames of reference and confront the ‘elephant in the room’. The current status quo in the nursing profession emanates from a particular understanding of the world that has created frameworks and values for which we educate and propagate nursing scholarship that dictate who and what is included (Iheduru‐Anderson et al, 2021; Russell & Flynt Wallington, 2022).
