Nursing fundamentals & skills

Enables readers to hone their nursing skills in a controlled, safe, and realistic environment with the help of simulation

Blending practical guidance with robust theoretical foundations, Practice Learning Through Simulation offers a comprehensive exploration of simulation-based nursing education. Thoughtfully designed simulations replicate real-life clinical situations, from routine care to high-stakes emergencies. Step-by-step guides show how to integrate simulation into the curriculum to enhance critical thinking, clinical judgment, and hands-on skills, while emphasising psychological safety and learner engagement.

This book explores the latest in simulation technology, including high-fidelity mannequins, virtual reality, and standardised patients to create a dynamic learning environment. It includes strategies for effective debriefing and feedback, helping students reflect on their performance and build confidence, as well as techniques for fostering teamwork and communication across healthcare disciplines. The book also addresses current regulatory standards and champions innovative approaches, including the latest in immersive technologies and evidence-based learning experiences.

Written in collaboration with those working in the field, Practice Learning Through Simulation shows readers how to:

Design effective simulation scenarios aligned with NMC standards, incorporating learner needs, service-user perspectives, and lesson structure to support progressive student development

Support the acquisition and refinement of both technical and non-technical skills in nursing education through experiential learning and deliberate practice theory

Accommodate diverse learning preferences using Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory, the VARK model, and Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences

Overcome common challenges in simulation delivery, including emotional safety and logistical constraints

Whether you’re a new or experienced educator, Practice Learning Through Simulation offers invaluable insights and practical tools to inspire excellence in nursing education and prepare your students to meet the challenges of today’s healthcare landscape with confidence, competence, critical thinking, and compassion.
