Abstract
Background: Considering the escalating challenges of climate change and antimicrobial-resistant diseases, prelicensure nursing education needs to focus on preparing nurses for future pandemics.
Method: In a cross-sectional quantitative study, 53 clinical educators assessed their confidence in nursing students' pandemic preparedness competencies.
Results: Confidence was highest for culturally competent care and personal safety, and lowest for emergency nursing interventions and triage principles. Preceptors exhibited higher overall confidence than clinical oversight instructors.
Conclusion: This study highlights the need to bolster nursing teaching strategies to prepare prelicensure nursing students more effectively for future pandemic response roles. [J Nurs Educ. 2025;64(6):372-375.].
