Abstract
Students from a baccalaureate program at the University of Delaware participated in a 4-week course in England, exploring nursing's role in the health care system of that country. Students observed and interacted with a variety of clients and nurses in diverse settings; they observed similarities and differences in nursing education, practice, and professional identity between nurses in England and in the United States. The course was timely and valuable--it provided students with the opportunity to enhance their awareness of another culture and it allowed them to recognize nursing's importance in global health concerns.
