The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Curtin University, “A qualitative, descriptive longitudinal study was conducted with 25 preregistration nursing students who participated in an international placement. Semistructured individual interview data were examined using thematic analysis. Participants were interested in patient equity and empowerment, high acuity and variety, health policy, and primary care. Participants developed resilience and nursing confidence. They saw the effects of poor health equity and health policy decisions on population health. ICPs expanded participants’ understanding of global interconnectedness and also identified new career possibilities.”

According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “Postpandemic, nursing education should continue to maintain a global focus on health. [J Nurs Educ.”
