Abstract

Environmental Health 101: Incorporating Environmental Health into the Nursing Curriculum program for nursing faculty was presented at the National League for Nursing's annual conference in November 2011. This faculty program provided by the Connecticut League for Nursing was designed in response to the American Nurses' Association inclusion of environmental health into the 2010 Scope and Standards of Practice for Registered Nurses. State and national leaders in environmental health and nursing presented to representatives from licensed practical nurse, associate, and bachelor's degree nursing programs in Connecticut. Follow-up surveys revealed that attendees had incorporated environmental health information into lectures and clinical experiences and have shared information gained from the programs with families and communities. This interactive program was positively evaluated and can be duplicated by other providers.
