The patient responds to the learner’s actions and questions, offering feedback.

vSim for Nursing has been produced in collaboration with Laerdal as part of the ‘Learning for Saving Lives’ alliance. The goal of this alliance is to create seamless curriculum integration solutions which incorporate simulation and bridge the gap between education and practice. The virtual patients in vSim for Nursing can also be found in NLN Volume 1 Laerdal scenarios. This allows educators to prepare their students for classroom scenarios and debrief or review simulation actitivty when the lab scenario had been conducted.
