Our Goal: To create tools in which institutions using simulation-based training could readily access curriculum and case studies in order to enhance the clinical practice of their students.

To create tools in which institutions using simulation-based training could readily access curriculum and case studies in order to enhance the clinical practice of their students.

Objectives Create 30 case studies, relevant to the Practical Nursing Curriculum Deliver simulation based training to current students Create a “user manual” for instructors using the Laerdal Nursing Kelly Manikin ® and case studies Design and deliver a “Train the Trainer” curriculum for clinical instructors using simulated technology Develop competency check list for qualify instructors to properly use simulator technology
