Abstract

In communities around the world, health professionals and students preparing for health careers are increasingly responding to global health needs stemming from natural disasters, infectious disease outbreaks, and inadequate resources. This has resulted in a wide range of faith-based and nonfaith-based health care organizations establishing international medical service programs. This article provides guidance for nursing professional development educators and faculty on leading and participating in these programs. The emphasis is on using best practice guidelines while engaging with the community and providing culturally appropriate and sustainable health care services within an international context.
