Objectives:
The purpose of the current study is to suggest a powerful strategy to overcome the misperceptions of undergraduate nursing students' about paediatric palliative care (PPC), through simulation technique.
Materials And Methods:
A one-group pre-test-post-test design was carried out to assess changes in undergraduate nursing students' representations about PPC before and after the exposure to a simulation experience. A total of 24 undergraduate nursing students at the Higher Institute of Health Sciences (HIHS) of Settat have taken part in this study.
Results:
The results have shown that there was a significant difference between mean pre- and post-test scores (P = 0.00).
Conclusion:
The simulation technique can be a powerful pedagogical strategy to overcome undergraduate nursing students' misperceptions about PPC.
