Summary
This study developed and tested the NESTLED model for simulation-based learning in nursing education. The model proved effective and transferable across European countries, enhancing educator confidence and knowledge.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Simulation-Based Learning
- Healthcare Professional Development
Background:
- Inconsistent integration of simulation-based learning in nursing programs.
- Need for a structured model for educator facilitation in simulation-based education.
Purpose of the Study:
- Develop a model to train educators delivering simulation-based learning.
- Assess the model's transferability across different national educational settings.
Main Methods:
- Design-based Research methodology employed across three European countries.
- Data collection via pre- and post-programme questionnaires and focus groups.
- Involved educators from three Schools of Nursing.
Main Results:
- The NESTLED model content aligns with participant needs.
- Demonstrated cross-country transferability of the model.
- Participant preferences for session duration and pre-reading varied by experience level.
Conclusions:
- The NESTLED model enhanced participant confidence and knowledge.
- Feasible to deliver the NESTLED model internationally with logistical flexibility.
- Highlights the need for adaptable program delivery.
