Forward6th Annual Native Nations Nursing Summit - LIVE WEBINARS
RESILIENCE AND NATIVE NURSING IN THE AGE OF COVID-19
Join us VIRTUALLY for the Native Nations Nursing Virtual Summit to learn about nursing career pathways and evidence-based approaches for optimal, culturally congruent health care in Native American communities. This year's summit will be provided by LIVE Webinar. Sessions will also be recorded and offered approximately 3 weeks following the live summit.
PRACTICE GAPS AND NEEDS
Addressing health disparities experienced by Native American communities is a critical priority. Research shows that Native American women are disproportionately victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) and Native youth struggle with mental health issues at higher rates than other groups.
In the age of COVID-19, Tribal communities have now faced a new public health crisis while continuing to address ongoing health disparities within their communities. Identifying and applying evidence-based practices specific to Native American communities is essential, especially in the age of COVID-19.
The 6th Annual Native Nations Nursing Summit will focus on addressing public health needs within Native American communities, specifically in the age of COVID-19. Summit speakers will highlight the pandemic response of Native communities, provide information about current health disparities within Native communities, and recognize the resilience of Native and non-Native nurses.
ELEMENTS OF COMPETENCE
This accredited summit is designed to improve learner competence and focuses on the Institute of Medicine areas of providing patient-centered care and employing evidence-based practice, and the Interprofessional and nursing areas of values/ethics for interprofessional practice, roles/responsibilities, interprofessional communication, and teams/teamwork.
AUDIENCE
Native and non-Native nurses, middle/high school/college and returning students, school of nursing advisors, recruiters, and anyone interested in supporting the health of tribal communities.
Learning Objectives
By the end of the summit learners will be able to:
- Identify best practices to provide culturally congruent care
- Explain pathways to achieve a successful career in nursing
- Apply principles of public health to nursing care in Native communities
