Two Nursing students were immersed in a home healthcare simulation as Visiting Nurses for patient Bob, his wife Claire (played by Nursing faculty member) and "dog" Chloe, all in Bob's "apartment." Our Nursing Simulation Laboratory assists nursing students in learning critical thinking and clinical judgment skills in preparation for their healthcare careers. The “manikins” act as lifelike patient simulators, wherein instructors provide real-time feedback via a control center, giving students as close to real-life simulation as possible. Fellow students watch as their classmates work through the simulation. All students and faculty debrief after the scenario.
