Abstract

Students are sheltered from a professional nurse workload, and are unprepared for the transition into the workforce. Baccalaureate students participated in a real world multiple patient simulation. Students overwhelmingly found the experience to be positive, allowing the opportunity to practice leadership skills, including teamwork, delegation, communication, and prioritization.
