NSG 2450 Maternal Infant & Medical Surgical Simulation Lecture: 0 Lab: 0 Practica: 1 Total Credits: 1 Clinical simulation provides a controlled environment in which students can practice the nursing process and sharpen their critical thinking and decision-making skills before caring for real patients in the clinical setting. Students are challenged to work in teams, communicate, and intervene for patients in carefully designed scenarios. Care planning, electronic medical record review and real-time documentation, SBAR communication, therapeutic communication and technical nursing skills are enhanced in these scenarios. Concepts of safety, quality, best practices, patient centered care, cultural competence and developmentally appropriate care are integrated. A critical component of simulation is debriefing after each simulation which promotes reflection and self-assessment of the experience. Scenarios are developed to prepare students for real world encounters in Maternal Infant and complex challenging Medical Surgical practice.
(Note: For the Asheville Campus only, the credit hour breakdown is .5 credits lab and .5 credits clinical).
