While confrontingmany challenges related to changes in health care,
higher education, and clinical practice, nurse educators are exploring
new opportunities for innovative teaching/learning methods, new
clinical models, and educational practices to provide high-quality
educationtopromoteoptimal,qualitypatient care.Clinical simulations
canprovidehealthcareeducatorswithoneapproach tocreate student-
centered, experiential environments that engage and prepare the
learner for real-worldpractice.
