Multiple-patient simulations may be used to promote the development of leadership skills as well as patient care management. Multiple-patient simulations create opportunities that mimic real interactions encountered in clinical practice. In addition to promoting the development of these essential skills among students, these simulations also meet the needs of new graduate nurses. The purpose of this article is to provide educators with guidelines on how to create and implement a multiple-patient simulation and examples for application.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
