Demographic changes in the US influence the delivery of healthcare and health education. To provide the best care and education, healthcare professionals need to increase cultural sensitivity. Educators from different disciplines increasingly recognize the importance of addressing the issue of culture. Participating in an international healthcare mission is one method to increase cultural awareness. Although changing demographics have altered how healthcare professionals practice, there is little research on the different methods to prepare future healthcare professionals to be culturally sensitive. Published research on the impact of an International Healthcare Mission (IHM) on participating healthcare professional students is notably sparse.

520 $a Demographic changes in the US influence the delivery of healthcare and health education. To provide the best care and education, healthcare professionals need to increase cultural sensitivity. Educators from different disciplines increasingly recognize the importance of addressing the issue of culture. Participating in an international healthcare mission is one method to increase cultural awareness. Although changing demographics have altered how healthcare professionals practice, there is little research on the different methods to prepare future healthcare professionals to be culturally sensitive. Published research on the impact of an International Healthcare Mission (IHM) on participating healthcare professional students is notably sparse.
520 $a The purpose of this research was to explore the perceived effects of an IHM on participating healthcare professional students. Thirty-two students from U.S. healthcare professional schools participated. None took coursework to prepare them for an international mission. This study used both qualitative and quantitative methods, also known as methodological triangulation. Semi-structured interviews of IHM student participants (n = 9) provided qualitative data. A survey framed by Wilson's Impact of an International Experience model provided complementary and supportive quantitative information to themes that surfaced from interviews. Within the survey, several questions explored the impact of the mission on the student's professional and cultural self-efficacy. These later questions validated cognitive, affective, and selection processes as regulators and mastery experiences as a source of self-efficacy within Bandura's theory of self-efficacy.
520 $a Triangulated methodology provided an enhanced picture of the phenomenon researched. Students reported gains in substantive knowledge, perceptual understanding, growth as an individual, improved interpersonal connections, as well as enhanced self confidence. The information discovered from this research support both Wilson's model and Bandura's theory of self-efficacy. Further, this research highlights the value of an international healthcare mission to enhance student awareness, understanding, respect and sensitivity to people from other countries, cultures, and economic situations. Additionally, participants indicated that IHM experiences enhanced their provider-patient interactions, multicultural teamwork, and increased their knowledge of factors impacting a client's health status and reception of healthcare services. Recommendations include (1) study replication, (2) modifications of selected survey items, and (3) development of a course with an IHM service-learning component.
