Abstract
Session presented on Saturday, April 9, 2016, and Friday, April 8, 2016:
A high fidelity simulation with three acutely ill standardized patients was used to replicate a typical nursing assignment on a medical surgical unit. Students attended to patient teaching, provided timely delivery, and appropriately prioritized, but their lapse in clinical judgment and basic safety procedures is a cause for concern.
