Product Overview: Offering Description
The
interactive vSim scenarios
permit students to try their clinical reasoning skills by treating a patient
in a virtual, safe environment, conducting assessments, communicating with the patient, interpreting
orders, conducting interventions, and administering medication. Nursing students need experience
practicing their clinical decision making skills in a safe environment, as often as possible. Simulation labs,
while extremely valuable, have natural limitations for instructors and students.
vSim for Nursing
represents the opportunity to integrate application-based learning in the classroom, and independently
by providing virtual simulation.
KEY FEATURES
SmartSense links
provide remediation to Lippincott Advisor and Lippincott Procedures so students
can have the most up-to-date, evidence-based practice information to ensure the care they are
providing is current and based on the latest evidence.
Pre-Simulation Quizzes
allow students to identify areas they need to understand better before
entering the Simulation and seeing the patient.
Post-Simulation Quizzes
allow students see if they
have learned key concepts from the scenario.
Documentation Assignments
allow students to practice the use of an Electronic Health Record when
vSim is paired with Lippincott DocuCare. Documentation questions are provided for consideration.
