Background Cultural immersion international learning experiences (CIILEs) are commonly offered in undergraduate nursing education programs worldwide, often with the goal to enhance students' cultural competence. Purpose The purpose of this integrative review was to explore the most recent existing literature concerning the impact of CIILEs on nursing students' cultural competence and to cast a critical eye on the findings. Method We searched the CINAHL database for articles published from 2015 to 2019 and found 30 that met inclusion criteria. Results The majority of the studies were descriptive or qualitative designs and reported positive overall student cultural competence outcomes. Conclusion The findings support the use of CIILEs with a critical eye for potential negative consequences. The authors recommend further longitudinal, observational studies to identify factors that facilitate substantial long-term positive outcomes. |
