Patient Care
The opportunity to gain familiarity with equipment and techniques in a non-threatening environment is a critical component of skill acquisition. Learning through patient care simulation provides a dynamic hands-on learning experience beginning the path from novice to competent professional, from student to practicing nurse.

If the Chain of Survival is all about saving a life, Patient Care is all about making sure the patient has the best possible chance of living life to its fullest.

NLN Books and Reference Materials

Simulation in some form has probably been used as a teaching strategy in nursing education since the first nurse tried to teach the first nursing student how to do a task properly. As understanding of teaching and learning progressed, so did the simulations that were used. This book, the first of its kind for nurse educators, is the work of an innovative, creative group of nurse educators from all types of programs who wished to share what they learned during the course of a three-year multisite project that tested simulation models and contributed to the refinement of the body of knowledge related to the use of simulation in nursing education.
