Abstract AIM The purpose of this study was to explore student experiences within a health care disparity simulation, embedded in maternal-child content. BACKGROUND Health care disparities related to race and ethnicity in the maternal-child population are daunting among African American and Hispanic women. METHOD Participants completed the Simulation Effectiveness Tool-Modified, a rapid-fire huddle questionnaire, and a demographic instrument. All students participated in structured debriefing. RESULTS Student responses (n = 69) demonstrated effectiveness in learning via this scenario. CONCLUSION The rapid-fire huddle and debriefing are important elements when health care disparities are introduced into nursing curricula.
