dc.description.abstract	INTRODUCTION: Culturally safe practices are crucial for equitable health care for Indigenous Peoples. Despite the vital role of internationally qualified nurses in delivering patient care in the host countries, there is limited evidence on their knowledge and practices of cultural safety. This paper, aims to identify and map existing evidence on cultural safety knowledge and practices among internationally qualified nurses in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. METHOD: A scoping review was conducted using a comprehensive search strategy across five electronic databases and gray literature. RESULTS: Three studies met the inclusion criteria. Findings were grouped into two categories: knowledge on cultural safety and challenges in translating this knowledge into practice. DISCUSSION: Our review highlights the scarcity of evidence in this area. The findings from the limited existing evidence underscore the urgent need to plan future research on knowledge and practices related to cultural safety among internationally qualified nurses to promote health outcomes for Indigenous Peoples.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION: Culturally safe practices are crucial for equitable health care for Indigenous Peoples. Despite the vital role of internationally qualified nurses in delivering patient care in the host countries, there is limited evidence on their knowledge and practices of cultural safety. This paper, aims to identify and map existing evidence on cultural safety knowledge and practices among internationally qualified nurses in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. METHOD: A scoping review was conducted using a comprehensive search strategy across five electronic databases and gray literature. RESULTS: Three studies met the inclusion criteria. Findings were grouped into two categories: knowledge on cultural safety and challenges in translating this knowledge into practice. DISCUSSION: Our review highlights the scarcity of evidence in this area. The findings from the limited existing evidence underscore the urgent need to plan future research on knowledge and practices related to cultural safety among internationally qualified nurses to promote health outcomes for Indigenous Peoples.
