In today's quickly changing healthcare environment, simulation has
become an indispensable strategy for preparing nursing students to
deliver optimal patient care. Clinical Simulations in Nursing
Education: Advanced Concepts, Trends, and Opportunities, Second
Edition, takes the use of simulations to the next level, exploring
innovative teaching/learning methods, new clinical models, and
up-to-date best practices for providing high-quality education.
From the evolution of clinical simulations to the use of more virtual
simulations, incorporation of important constructs such as the social
determinants of health, and the use of simulations in nursing education
and competency-based testing, this engaging resource continues to
provide intermediate and advanced simulation users and advocates with
critical considerations for advancing simulation in nursing education.
The comprehensive updated second edition focuses on the latest trends
and concepts in simulation pedagogy to help nurse educators confidently
prepare for their role in developing, planning, implementing,
evaluating, and conducting research for effective simulation programs.
"Throughout the years, Pam Jeffries, who brought us the first edition
of this outstanding volume, has been a constant in simulation leadership
and research. Now years later, this second edition takes us to an even
deeper level, including chapters about diversity and cultural humility,
debriefing for clinical judgment and competence, curricular integration,
and advancing clinical judgment through simulation. ... If you want to
maximize student learning through simulation and cutting-edge
technology, this book is for you."
