This initiative aims to inspire nursing students to apply their values in practice while actively addressing intimate partner violence (IPV) in their communities. By integrating innovative teaching strategies that utilize popular culture and media literacy, educators can engage students effectively. Nurses are encouraged to develop consistent screening practices for IPV, particularly during pregnancy and postpartum. The program emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying sociocultural factors and equipping future nurses with the knowledge and skills necessary to promote safety and well-being in patients.
