RAD-AID International is dedicated to increasing radiology services to poor areas with limited resources
and low-income nations (as defined by the World Bank). With the demands of global health continuing
to transform, leadership in the education and empowerment of the world's nursing community will be at
the forefront in guiding change for improved heath outcomes. This article will introduce RAD-AID and
nursing leadership opportunities in the field of global health.

Introduction

Despite the globalization of the world's economies and
extraordinary advances in medicine and technology, it is exasper-
ating that so many people in the world still have little if any access
to quality health care. At the same time, it is encouraging to see a
rapid growth in the number of organizations and individuals
committed to tackling the world's greatest health care challenges.

RAD-AID International, a nonprofit organization affiliated with the
World Health Organization, aims to confront these gaps in health care
by pioneering radiologic and public health strategies to improve global
health for low-resource communities around the world. With a
growing base of more than 6,000 international volunteers, 53
university-based chapters in the United States and hands-onprograms
in 23 countries, RAD-AID has continued to expand its' global outreach
making a substantial impact in some of the world's most impov-
erished communities since 2008 (RAD-AID International, n.d.; see
http://www.rad-aid.org).

Global outreach

Using a multidisciplinary team approach founded on values of
integrity, diversity, perseverance, and ongoing self-evaluation and
improvement, RAD-AID's five key areas (see Figure 1) targeted for sus-
tainable global health program development consist of the following:

� Technological innovation to bring radiologic capabilities to low-
resource settings.

� Clinical training to enhance learning capabilities and advanced
patient care.

c/o RAD-AID International,

on for Radiologic & Imaging Nursin

� Public health education to raise awareness on prevention,
screening, and importance of treatment.

� Health policy development to improve organizational work-
flows and access to quality care.

� Research to guide evidence-based health care policy.

Nursing involvement

With nursing comprising the largest percentage of health care
workers in theworld (Wong et al., 2015), it is in a position of distinct
prominence to address the reoccurring themes of limited access to
global health resources and manpower, inadequate nursing and
community health education, and insufficient tools to implement
operational changes in health care policy. These sorts of global
initiatives at the international level provide a conduit for nursing to
expand its international expertise and broaden its scope of practice
(Wong et al., 2015).

RAD-AID's nursing program aims to support the advancement of
its global radiology initiatives by creating and implementing sus-
tainable nursing education and training programs around the
world. With a mission to integrate social responsibility and global
citizenship into present-day nursing practice, RAD-AID nursing
provides opportunities for nurses, and nursing students alike, to
serve in various overseas programs focused on nursing education,
clinical skills training, research to measure program outcomes, and
health policy development to support program sustainability.
Global programs are varied and encompass a wide variety of
nursing subspecialties, including radiology, women's health, pri-
mary care, community health, and oncology nursing.

RAD-AID annual conference

Notably, during the first weekend in November, RAD-AID's
annual conference is held at the Pan-American Health Organization

innovative strategies to tackle the world's challenges in radiology

nursing leadership and education in RAD-AID's global nursing
programs, centers on providing comprehensive and holistic care
patient care. Initiatives in Chandigarh, India, include providing
community health education for women being screened on the

Conclusion

The advancement of nursing as a proponent of world health
plays an increasingly important role in modern-day nursing

practice and has created an urgent need for comprehensive nursing
education, training, and research around the world (Wong et al.,
2015). Those of us who share this global vision of health realize
that byworking in partnershipwith our professional colleagues and
international partners, we place nursing at the forefront in safe-
guarding those communities in greatest need regardless of national
boundaries.

RAD-AID's nursing program aims to support the advancement of
its global radiology initiatives by creating and implementing sus-
tainable nursing education and training programs around the
world. With a mission to integrate social responsibility and global
citizenship into present-day nursing practice, RAD-AID nursing
provides opportunities for nurses, and nursing students alike, to
serve in various overseas programs focused on nursing education,
clinical skills training, research to measure program outcomes, and
health policy development to support program sustainability.
Global programs are varied and encompass a wide variety of
nursing subspecialties, including radiology, women's health, pri-
