Abstract

In 2015, nursing faculty responded to the Virtual Patient Adoption and Integration in Nursing (VPAIN) survey. Of the 398 participants, 194 reported being part of the decision-making process to adopt asynchronous virtual patient simulations. This presentation will describe the significant differences between the decision-makers and non-decision-makers using these innovations.
