Abstract:
There are many standardized debriefing methods in simulation. In an academic setting, simulation is usually run for novice learners. They come with little to no experience in their field of study and participate in simulation with knowledge gained from lectures and practice labs. Adding a self-debrief to a facilitated group-debrief was found to enhance students’ simulation experience. A mixed-method study was done on fourth-year baccalaureate nursing students and results will be shared in this presentation. Four themes will be discussed: psychological safety, learning, methodology, and reflection.
Learning Objectives:
- Analyze how self-debriefing enhances self-awareness and reflection.
- Examine how psychological safety can be enhanced with self-debriefing prior to group-debriefing.
- Discuss how the use of combining debriefing formats can optimize learning after simulation.
