Abstract
Background: Little is known about the status of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, and inter-sex and asexual (LGBTQIA+) health content in prelicensure nursing curricula. This study explored curricular and pedagogical practices of LGBTQIA+ health content in nursing curricula in the United States. Design: A quantitative, cross-sectional comparative descriptive design was implemented. Method: Stratified random sampling was used to email a survey to deans and administrators of prelicensure associate degree in nursing (ADN) and baccalaureate nursing (BSN) programs. Results: Private ADN programs included more LGBTQIA+ health content than BSN programs and more LGBTQIA+ health content than public ADN programs in nursing curricula. Conclusion: Although progress has been made to include LGBTQIA+ health content in nursing curricula in the U.S., creative educational strategies can be used to help meet the varying needs of different programs.
