The influence of poverty on health is a problem that transcends national borders. This week\u2019s readings discussed some of the political, economic, and ethical issues that lead to health disparities in developed and developing countries. In addition, in this week\u2019s first media presentation, Dr. Mancuso and Dr. Huijer shared insights on working within political systems to bring about positive changes in health care. Think about the importance of nurses in addressing these needs and in bringing about change.<\/p>\n
