Abstract:
With the increased prevalence of simulation as a teaching strategy, there remains a need to establish best practice guidelines to foster nursing education goals. One essential goal of nursing education is clinical judgment development. The debriefing component of simulation clearly provides a forum to enhance clinical judgment development. Following a literature review of debriefing in nursing and other disciplines, the authors suggest strategies that optimize debriefing after simulation as a means to promote clinical judgment among nursing students.
