Abstract

The integration of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) concepts throughout the curriculum is imperative to the preparation of advanced-practice nurses to deliver person-centered care. This article describes the design and evaluation of one institution's faculty-developed DEI competencies for graduate nursing students. A task force of faculty and content experts utilized a modified Delphi approach in the development of DEI-focused competencies related to advanced-level nursing education. A literature review, a faculty survey, and content experts were employed in the modified Delphi approach. Creation of interdisciplinary faculty-lead graduate nursing DEI curricular competencies included an overview, identification of three domains, eight competencies with associated key elements, and a glossary clarifying nine essential DEI terms. The development of DEI competencies for graduate nursing programs is feasible and an important strategy for preparing students with the values and skills to address the ongoing embedded structural inequalities in health care.
