Nurse Educator Tips for Teaching Nurse Educator

Despite recommendations to include disability content in nursing education, nursing students have little exposure to disability education. The authors developed a tabletop simulation for teaching disabilities to nursing students. A community advisory group was created to advise the development of this project and included individuals with disabilities, their family members, and people who work with individuals with disabilities in community settings. The authors also share strategies for integrating disability content into a nursing curricuum.
