Abstract
Abstract The ability to deliver culturally competent nursing care is an expected competency of undergraduate nursing education programs. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) and the National League for Nursing (NLN) have developed toolkits that provide nurse educators with models and teaching strategies to facilitate student learning in cultural competency. However, the concept of cultural competency varies as does the best method for integrating and evaluating cultural competency in undergraduate nursing curriculum. With the growing number of diverse clients, it is imperative that nursing students deliver culturally competent care. This article explores the current view of the concept of cultural competency from the standpoint of nursing education and the methods used to evaluate cultural competency in undergraduate nursing education programs.
