Setting Learners up for Simulation and Clinical Success

Simulation is an effective method for learning and demonstrating competency in the clinical setting. Like protocols used by nurses in the practice setting, simulation educators have standards of best practice to guide their use of simulation for teaching and learning. By using the Healthcare Simulation Standard of Best Practice: Prebriefing, the simulation educators and nurse preceptors can create safe learning and working environments. Incorporating a standard prebriefing method and plan that carries throughout the clinical environment may be one way to decrease stress and anxiety of the nursing team and promote a psychologically safe working environment.
