This project explored the impact of high-fidelity simulation on nursing students’ attitudes toward end-of-life care. Utilizing the Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying Form B (FATCOD-B) scale, the study measured students’ attitudes before and after participation in a simulated end-of-life care scenario. A Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test revealed a statistically significant improvement in attitudes, with median scores increasing from 117.5 to 123 (z = -2.98, n = 14, p < 0.05). Although the effect size was small (r = 0.11), the results demonstrate that high-fidelity simulations can enhance nursing students’ comfort and attitudes toward providing compassionate care to terminally ill patients. This research highlights the potential of simulation-based education to address the limited exposure to end-of-life care during traditional clinical rotations and to prepare students for the emotional and practical challenges of palliative care.
