The nursing field has seen changes within the past 25 years that point to a need for more hands-on, inclusive, and immersive experiences for students and nursing professionals. With additional attention on leadership, communication skills, and safe care practices, nurses can benefit greatly from exposure to high-quality simulation- based training.
Also on the Laerdal website you can download a free article “Adapting to Nursing’s New Expectations: Boosting Your Simulation Fidelity Can Help Your Nurses Succeed” which covers a emphasis on patient-centered care, the importance of diagnosis and assessment skills, as well as how you can bridge the gap between the classroom and clinical practice! In this article, Laerdal examines three significant changes that have come to shape today’s nursing landscape. Research suggests that you can use simulation to address these changes with the goal that your nurses approach their role with competence, confidence, and compliance.
