Abstract:
High-fidelity simulators offer a teaching tool for nurse educators to provide lifelike simulated clinical experiences for baccalaureate nursing students. A group of faculty teaching a variety of clinical courses followed similar steps within frameworks of the American Association of Colleges of Nursing essentials and education theories to create case scenarios. The benefits of simulation experiences for students are discussed and a template for the nurse educator is provided to help develop simulations. This system is illustrated by an example from a high-risk antepartum obstetric scenario.
