Abstract:
The effectiveness of simulation to reduce the theory-practice gap in graduate nursing education is supported by an extensive body of research, and numerous studies have demonstrated improved learner outcomes in such areas as clinical competence, confidence, and preparedness for practice. This paper explores the types of simulation-based education available for graduate nursing programs and provides examples of graduate nursing simulations that educators can use in their own programs to prepare clinicians for practice.
