Abstract
Racial harassment continues to be a feature of the United Kingdom (UK) National Health Service (NHS). It has serious consequences for those at the receiving end and impacts negatively on attempts by the NHS to retain and recruit a diverse workforce. The prevalence and persistence of racist views and behaviours amongst NHS staff raises questions concerning the preparation and education of practitioners. In 2004 the Faculty of Health and Social Care, University of the West of England, Bristol, piloted a training workshop to prepare students on a pre-qualifying adult nursing programme to prevent, recognise and effectively manage incidences of racial harassment in the workplace. Students found the training workshop useful to their learning. They felt more aware of racial harassment issues in the NHS and the specific actions they can take in the prevention and management of these. The findings support introduction of the training workshop as an integral component of the preparation of all students on the Faculty's pre-qualifying nursing programmes. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
