Nursing Expanding Simulation

October 19, 2017

Meet Baby Lucas and our Toddler Samantha!

We hosted our first Pediatric SIM, which was a great success and fun for both staff and students.  Thank you to our patient Mom actors Allyson and Monica for their enthusiasm, and thank you to the instructors who helped make this day run so smoothly.

Students were brought to the lab for a day of SIM from their current clinical pediatric rotation.  Students participated in two scenarios that were geared to help expand their learning, assessment, and communication skills in difficult situations.  We hope they’ll take this experience with them throughout their careers as nurses!
