Abstract

A partnership that was established to provide cross-cultural learning for senior-level community health nursing students from the United States also provided a learning opportunity for nurses at a pediatric neurosurgical hospital in Uganda. The faculty who accompanied the students on the study abroad to the CURE Children’s Hospital of Uganda provided an educational session on critical thinking in response to request from the hospital administrators. Learning outcomes were evidenced through informal one-on-one interactions following the sessions. Even a small contribution such as this teaching intervention in cross-cultural exchange may affirm the belief that “each drop counts” as the nurses may obtain skills that enhance their ability to contribute to saving the lives of their patients.
