Abstract

Our study investigated simulation utilization and simulation evaluation practices and approaches employed among undergraduate nursing educational programs in Ontario, Canada, using a mixed methods approach, including both quantitative and qualitative data collection through a confidential online survey. The goal of our study is to establish a "picture" of current trends, practices, and approaches related to simulation that is employed within this entire province. An overview of the study results and recommendations that have potential to make a substantial contribution to the growing evidence for best practices in the science of simulation will be discussed.
