Using simulation in nursing education

Abstract

Virtual patient simulation is a valuable tool for clinical curricula, but the inability to engage in physical contact may limit its application. This session will describe a novel virtual patient simulation for evaluating physical assessment and present the results of a mixed-methods study of pre- and postlicensure baccalaureate student experiences.
