Overview

This second edition of an acclaimed book for nurse educators provides a practical, step-by-step guide to designing and developing simulation scenarios and integrating them into the nursing curriculum. Based on the findings of an extensive focus group that included contributing authors and new faculty, the text has been updated to include changes in simulation pedagogy since the first edition was published in 2008, and thoroughly reorganized to facilitate greater ease of use. An outstanding feature of the text is its provision of scenarios that are easily adaptable to the instructor's own lab. Additionally, these scenarios are ordered according to their complexity for quick access. The authors provide concrete information about the use of simulation in a variety of programs, courses, and schools and include real life scenarios of how nursing faculty have mastered the challenge of integrating simulation into their curriculums. The book provides recommendations on integrating point of care decision-making tools, necessary equipment, how to set up a lab (including static to high fidelity mannequins), scenario running instructions, and much more. The text also includes an enhanced eBook guide. This updated edition includes: Scenarios that are easily adaptable to instructor's own lab New scenarios for specialty undergraduate nursing and advanced practice nursing New interdisciplinary, interprofessional, and community-based scenarios Twenty new chapters Expanded chapter templates A complete reorganization for clarity of content A focus on cultural sensitivity and health literacy Research methods and international research Future development including certification and integrating e-records in simulation Faculty development Key Features: Integrates patient simulations into nursing curriculum, from undergraduate to graduate levels and in discipline-specific contexts Includes recommendations on integrating point of care decision-making technology Addresses a wide range of clinical situations Presents conceptual foundations for simulation in nursing education Offers enhanced eBook guide

"Provides numerous scenarios and scripts to provide realistic cases that nurse educators are able to use for training of student nurse. The book is easy to read and is adaptable for varying levels of simulation... It would be an ideal addition to any collection routinely involved with educating students primarily within their university segments of teaching. "" - Ibadete Fetahu, Nursing Times"
