Abstract
This literature review examines the importance of integrating health promotion interventions within nursing education. The focus is on strategies tailored to nursing students' needs and their effectiveness in promoting public health. Factors influencing health promotion actions are explored, including social determinants like family dynamics, marital status, and social support. The review highlights various pedagogical approaches for effective health promotion in nursing education. These include disseminating patient-centered health education materials, utilizing digital platforms, and encouraging personalized health activities. These strategies prioritize individual perspectives, empower patients, integrate health and social considerations, and involve communities. However, a gap often exists between intended and implemented health promotion practices. Health promotion programs can equip nursing students with crucial skills in health education and promotion. Interactive learning methods can enhance critical thinking, communication, and cultural competency. Students gain the ability to engage with diverse populations, deliver health information effectively, and make informed personal health choices. The integration of technology and innovation is essential for advancing health education, empowering students to adopt healthy behaviors and cater to their individual learning styles. The research underscores the vital role of incorporating health promotion principles into nursing curricula. This empowers future nurses to advocate for their own well-being and become competent public health advocates. In conclusion, the research underscores the importance of integrating health promotion principles into nursing curricula. This empowers future nurses to become effective advocates for both their own well-being and public health.
