ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
With rapidly growing members of the Islamic faith, health care providers should expect to care for Muslim patients regardless of their chosen specialty. The quality of care provided hinges on their knowledge and understanding of Islam. This study aimed to analyze the influence of an educational animation on undergraduate nursing students' cultural comfort and knowledge concerning the health care needs of Muslims.METHODS:
An educational animation was created addressing the unique health care needs of Muslim patients. Surveys (pre, post, 6 weeks) (n = 658) assessed cultural comfort and knowledge on covered topics.RESULTS:
Student knowledge (pre 12.4 ± 0.1; post 14.4 ± 0.2; p < .01) and cultural comfort (pre 4.0 ± 0.03; post 4.1 ± 0.03; p < .05) increased after viewing the online educational animation. The increase in knowledge was sustained at 6 weeks. Students recommended additional topics for the future.DISCUSSION:
This study highlights how an innovative educational animation can enhance students' understanding of providing care for Muslim patients, positively impacting patient outcomes.Palavras-chave
