Constance L. Milton, RN; PhD

California Baptist University, Riverside, California, constancemilton{at}yahoo.com

The discipline of nursing is experiencing the ever-present phenomenon of living with adversity or opposition. As a global nursing community, what are the possible ethical implications for global health in view of professional nursing practice and education? Professional nurses worldwide struggle with choosing and doing what is right while abiding with contexts or situations incarnated with conflict. With a global shortage of nursing faculty and practitioners, this column begins a nursing ethical discussion for pondering the need for community change. Ethical implications for the possibilities of faithfulness in adversity will be discussed from a human becoming nursing theoretical perspective.

Key Words: adversity • global health • human becoming • nursing ethics
