A importância da educação em enfermagem sobre diversidade sexual e de gênero: revisão de escopo

Palavras-chave: Equidade, Competência cultural, Diversidade de gênero, Educação em enfermagem

Resumo

Objetivo: mapear estratégias educacionais em enfermagem que promovem comportamentos inclusivos no cuidado à diversidade sexual e de gênero. Método: revisão de escopo conforme método do Joanna Briggs Institute. Foram realizadas buscas na MEDLINE e Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, com descritores adaptados. Foram incluídos estudos com estudantes ou profissionais de enfermagem e intervenções educativas relacionadas ao cuidado inclusivo. Os dados foram selecionados, extraídos e analisados tematicamente. Resultados: foram incluídos 14 estudos. As estratégias agruparam-se em simulação, módulos online, programas curriculares estruturados e métodos didáticos. A simulação melhorou confiança, comunicação e atitudes. Ferramentas digitais ampliaram conhecimento e sensibilidade cultural. Programas estruturados reduziram os preconceitos. Métodos didáticos foram mais eficazes quando combinados com abordagens interativas. Conclusões: abordagens multimodais apresentaram melhores resultados. A integração de simulação, ferramentas digitais e currículos estruturados favorece um cuidado inclusivo, sendo necessários estudos sobre efeitos a longo prazo.
