The proposed solution to preventing diabetes through culturally appropriate preventive programs is the steps toward providing sensitive and competent diabetes education (AADE, 2015). One way in addressing the issue is to deliver health information based on ethnic/cultural, norms, values, social beliefs, historical, environmental factors unique to specific population (AADE, 2015). The nurse in a school clinic needs knowledge and ability to work with culturally diverse population irrespective of language, customs, beliefs, values, communications, and actions of people according to race and ethnicity (AADE, 2015). Since first envisioning the EBP project I have changed my ideas with age of my clinics, since some students can be very young, with expanding beyond racial, ethnic and religious sensitivity to further individualization based on age-appropriate and socio-economic considerations. Seeing the amount of students affected by diabetes, and the high number of minority groups that are affected by diabetes at significantly greater rates when compared to non-Hispanic white Americans for reasons that are multidimensional, gives me a need in the school setting to try and change practice to address the need.
