SimAdviser is the online resource linking textbook theory to simulation practice. It provides scenario- targeted assessment, treatment, risk factors, procedure details, possible complications, and relevant medications all in one easy website. In this way SimAdviser supports students before, during, and after the simulation. Key Facts • Integrates with Laerdal NLN Vital Sims Volume I & II simulation scenarios. • Includes direct links to relevant textbook content. • Integrates with Docucare. • Includes content from real-world hospital systems, such as Lippincott’s Nursing Procedures and Skills (LNPS) and Lippincott’s Nursing Adviser (LNA). • Accessible from any computer with internet access. What are the learning benefits? SimAdviser bridges the gap between theory and practice. It gives students access to integrated images, videos and reference material which will help them prepare for and digest simulations. SimAdviser makes learning efficient and practical as textbook, scenario and classroom learning come together in one neat package. What will SimAdviser include? SimAdviser is constructed from evidence-based resources including LWW textbooks and real-world hospital reference systems, such as Lippincott’s Nursing Procedures and Skills (LNPS).

How will SimAdviser help faculty? SimAdviser helps faculty maximise limited time within the Sim Lab by making sure students come prepared and leave with a full understanding of the ‘why’ as well as the ‘how’. This not only promotes evidence-based learning but supports reflective practice as students reinforce what they have learned in the lab with features such as ‘Nursing Considerations’, ‘Discharge Planning’ and ‘Patient Teaching’. How does SimAdviser work with Laerdal Simulations? Content on the SimAdviser online platform is organised according to the scenarios found in NLN Vital Sims Volumes I and II. Users of NLN Vital Sims
