Disaster simulation in nursing education
Abstract
The NLN/Jeffries Simulation Theory was used to frame a mixed method, multi-site study examining two varying levels of virtual reality (VR) to teach decontamination. Satisfaction, cognitive knowledge, and performance were measured as outcomes. Findings indicate VR training is as effective as traditional methods and that participant characteristics influence performance.
