Preparing the Novice Critical Care Nurse: A Community-Wide Collaboration Using the Benefits of Simulation
Journal of Continuing Education in Nursing, 10/16/09
Stefanski RR et al. – This article describes how exploring the need for a continuing education course for the critical care nursing community turned into the development of the Preparing the Critical Care Nurse program. The course offered an opportunity for collaboration between area hospitals and a college of nursing by facilitating the transition of undergraduate nurses to the critical care setting using high–fidelity simulation. Course development, implementation, evaluation, and suggestions for similar courses in the future are presented. Goals of the simulation component of the course were evaluated and addressed the participants’ self–confidence and satisfaction with learning through simulation. A 6–month postevaluation provided insight into the participants’ impressions of simulation as a learning tool as they currently practice critical care nursing.
