Abstract

This study explores the use of simulation technology in pre-licensure programs in bridging the theory-practice gap for graduate nurses prior to entry to practice where the deficit is most acute. Simulation technology provides the ideal environment for students to integrate knowledge and practice in a risk-free and safe environment.
