Simulation has been used widely in the clinical exposure of nursing students and
professionals. It is an emerging strategy for teaching, learning and evaluating clinical
skills at different levels of nursing and midwifery education. It stimulates all the domains
of learning in a student, i.e.: cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain. Literature
review suggests that simulation in nursing and midwifery education is beneficial for
both students and patients and can be used to train nursing students before exposing
them to the clinical settings. Simulation based learning helps in increasing student��?s
responsibility and accountability towards clinical practice and it helps in improvement
of overall quality of patient care.
Benefits
Simulations in education are somewhat like training simulations. They focus on specific
tasks. It helps a learner to develop an understanding of the key concepts. Normally, a
user can create some sort of construction within the micro world that will behave in a
way consistent with the concepts being modeled.
Conclusion
Nursing education integrates theory and practice to help students develop cognitive,
intellectual, affective (attitudes and beliefs), and psychomotor skills and prepare for
professional life. Errors in real clinical settings threaten patient safety. Therefore, nursing
students should perform primary nursing interventions over and over in laboratories
and develop basic psychomotor skills before they enter clinical practice. Simulations
replicate real-world situations in which nursing students can gain clinical experience
without putting patients at risk. Simulations provide effective learning environments
where nursing students can gain experience and develop collaboration, management,
critical thinking, communication, clinical decision-making, and problem solving skills
without harming patient.
