Background: Nursing organizations have called for the incorporation of social determinants of health (SDOH) throughout nursing school curricula. Guidance is needed regarding best practices to integrate SDOH into pharmacology courses in prelicensure nursing programs.
Method: Using Emory University's School of Nursing SDOH framework to guide curriculum innovation, pharmacology faculty identified three pharmacology-centric SDOH topics: race-based medicine and pharmacogenomics, pharmacy deserts, and lack of diversity in clinical trials. These three SDOH topics were incorporated into preestablished pharmacology content.
Results: Faculty integrated SDOH into pharmacology courses with heavy science content, and students were receptive to open discussion of SDOH topics.
Conclusion: The integration of SDOH into a prelicensure nursing pharmacology course across multiple cohorts of students was feasible, and student feedback was positive. Faculty faced several challenges, including time constraints. Additional and ongoing training is needed to support the integration of SDOH into nursing curricula. .

Introduction: Recent health crises, like COVID-19, have increased the need for nurses with public health competencies, but students lack knowledge and are unconvinced of the importance of the field.
Methods: Pre-licensure nursing students (n = 341) engaged with a public health simulation-infused program (PHSIP) that scaffolded throughout the curriculum. Public health knowledge was tested pre- and post-simulation-based education (SBE), and the simulation effectiveness tool-modified (SET-M) was used to evaluate Learners' perception of the SBE experience.

College of Nursing, Kent State University, Kent, OH 44242, USA.
Background: Anxiety in simulations can be influenced by various factors that either motivate or immobilize students. Understanding simulation anxiety is crucial for educators to design appropriately challenging scenarios without overwhelming students. No instruments have yet been tested to differentiate between debilitating and facilitating anxiety within nursing simulations.
