Nurses must learn essential skills based in transcultural nursing to address issues of equity and social justice.

The practice model provides the opportunity for undergraduate and graduate nursing students at Augsburg University to de-emphasize tasks and build relationships. Students learn to listen to others' stories and acknowledge their struggles in the margins. Four stages of ...

Historically, some large B cell or T cell lymphomas were named histiocytic or reticulum cell sarcomas. Therefore, their true incidence remains unclear and it is probably lower than this range.
