Adapting the Use of Mask Ed ™ Simulation in Nursing Programmes During the COVID- 19 Pandemic
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, nurse academics have been challenged with the implementation of meaningful simulation activities in remote learning environments. Mask-Ed ™ (KRS Simulation) (here after referred to as Mask-Ed™) is one modality of simulation that was shown to be easily implemented in the virtual learning platform. Mask-Ed™ is a simulation technique which involves the educator/ teacher applying silicone props and in doing so becoming disguised so that they can then transform into another person/ character.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in Simulation
Canada is a country with a multicultural and diverse population, yet, the health care system often does not recognize these diverse identities in the design and implementation of the care provided (MacKenzie& Hatala, 2019). Health care systems are plagued by structural and systematic barriers, which disadvantage diverse groups from receiving safe, effective and equitable care (Foronda et al, 2020). Health professions education may perpetuate these inequities in how institutions educate students and the cont ent of the curricula (Jones et al., 2019). (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Describing Learners ’ Clinical Judgment Trajectory After Observing Expert Modeling Videos: A Mixed Methods Study
Learners take between one to three years following practice entry developing cognitive skills for “thinking like a nurse” (Benner, Sutphen, Leonard& Day, 2009). Learners often lack clinical judgment (CJ) required for safe, independent practice (Kavanagh& Sharpnack, 2021). Despite employers citing CJ as necessary skills, only 17 percent of graduate nurses meet minimal CJ standards (Kavanagh& Sharpnack, 2021). CJ inadequacies lead to errors, unsafe conditions, or patient harm (Hickerson, Taylor& Terhaar, 2016). (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

The Development and Implementation of Implicit Bias Simulation Scenarios: Lessons Learned
Implicit bias is the unconscious collection of stereotypes and attitudes that develop toward certain groups of people, which can affect patient relationships and care decisions (Edgoose, Quiogue,& Sidhar, 2019). The number of studies investigating implicit bias of health care providers and its troubling consequences has increased exponentially (Hagiwara, Kron, Scerbo,& Watson, 2020). Implicit biases among health care professionals exist, together with a negative correlation between level of bias and indicators of quality of care (FitzGerald& Hurst, 2017).

Where Are We Now? A Follow-up Survey on Regulation of Simulation Use in United States Prelicensure Nursing Programs
Simulation is one method of clinical education widely used across nursing education to replace and augment clinical hours of prelicensure nursing students (Tiffany, Hoglund, Holland,& Bambini, 2021). Prelicensure nursing programs within the United States (U.S.) are governed by the U.S. Department of Education, state authorizing organizations, and accrediting bodies (United States Department of Education, 2019). The state authorizing organizations that govern nursing education is the individual State Boards of Nursing (BON), in affiliation with the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN).

A Systematic Mapping Literature Review of Ethics in Healthcare Simulation and its Methodological Feasibility
Both the ethics of simulation and how it may be used to explore, train and assess ethical issues in a clinical context have received growing interest in recent years. As ethical considerations permeate almost every element of simulation and clinical practice, the emerging literature in this field remains relatively fragmented, lacking a common vocabulary or standardized practice and methodology. Given this, the primary aim of this paper was to systematically map the literature related to ethics in healthcare simulation, guided by the research question of ‘how is ethics in healthcare simulation recorded in current literat...

An Innovative Teaching Modality to Promote Proficient Gender-Affirming Care
Nurse educators are tasked with preparing the future workforce to address the challenges of a complex and diverse healthcare environment, including those of the LGBTQ2+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and two-spirit) community. Compared with heterosexual and cisgender patients (individuals who identify with the sex assigned at birth), LGTBQ2+ people face notable health disparities. These include increased morbidity and mortality, poorer health outcomes, and higher rates of certain illnesses, especially in LGTBQ2+ youth (Grant et al., 2011; Hafeez, 2017; Center for Disease Control and Prevention; Bi et al.,...

Undergraduate Nursing Education and End-of-Life Simulation: A Scoping Review
Caring for a dying patient is an important skill for nurses, as it occurs across all age spectrum and specializations. Of all patients dying in Australian hospitals, 34.4% were receiving palliative care (Stubbs, Assareh, Achat,& Jalaludin, 2019). Nurses spend more time with patients at end-of-life compared to other health professionals; they are often the ones who provide essential care such as hygiene, pressure area care, pain relief and communicating with families (Waller et al., 2020). Therefore, it is paramount nurses are armed with the knowledge and skills to support a dignified death. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Virtual Immersion into a Poorly-Managed Medical Crisis Worsens Subsequent Performance: A Randomized, Controlled Trial
Effective nontechnical skills (NTS) during the management of critical events reduce morbidity(Gaba, 2010; Lei& Palm, 2021). Perioperative teams typically practice NTS, such as effective communication, task management, and situational awareness, through in-person simulations. Rating systems that define the optimal cognitive and interprofessional skills required by health care professionals have been created to as sess NTS (Bracq, Michinov,& Jannin, 2019; Flin& Patey, 2011). These assessment tools include the Anesthetists’ Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) scale and the behaviorally anchored rating scale (BARS) (Flin& Pat...

The Influence of Nursing Simulation on Patient Outcomes and Patient Safety: A Scoping Review
Simulation, defined by the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning, is “an educational strategy in which a particular set of conditions are created or replicated to resemble authentic situations that are possible in real life. Simulation can incorporate one or more modalities to promote, improve, or validate a participant's performance.” (International Nursing Asso ciation for Clinical Simulation and Learning Standards Committee et al., 2021, p. 62). Simulation has been embraced in nursing education at the undergraduate and continuing education levels, and research has provided evidence...

Impact of a Transformed Curriculum on Knowledge and Attitudes Using EOL Simulation
In 2017, the College of Nursing administrators and Faculty at a Southeastern public university committed to better meet the learning needs of their prelicensure BSN students by transforming the undergraduate curriculum. This major undertaking generated the “Care, Lead and Inspire curriculum (CLIC),” ready for implementation in Fall 2018 for traditional (TBSN) and Summer 2019 for accelerated (ABSN) students. The first semester of the BSN program starts in summer for ABSN and in fall for TBSN students. (Source: Clinical Simulation in Nursing)

Using a Telemedicine Cart for an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) in Nurse Practitioner Education
Several nursing organizations have promoted the use of telehealth activities in nurse practitioner (NP) education and practice (American Association of Nurse Practitioners, 2019; Supports Telehealth in Nurse Practitioner, 2018). There have been several published accounts of virtual telehealth simulation activities in NP education using video conferencing for patient interviewing and care provision (Ainslie& Bragdon, 2018; Phillips, Munn,& George, 2020; Posey, Pintz, Zhou, Lewis,& Slaven-Lee., 2020; Quinlin, Graham, Nikolai,& Teall, 2021).

A Scoping Review of the Priority of Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity in Health Care Simulation
As a relational profession committed to serving society, nursing operates within a social contract, an arrangement of accountability outlined by a professional code of ethics, regulatory licensure, institutional policies, and global expectations (Fowler, 2015a). This nexus of accountability holds professional nurses responsible for creating and sustaining a nursing workforce that embodies and emanates diversity, inclusion, equitable health care, and health promotion (American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), 2021; Fowler, 2015b).

Using Audio-Visual Simulation to Elicit Nursing Students ’ Noticing and Interpreting Skills to Assess Pain in Culturally Diverse Patients
Assessment and management of pain is a critical role for health care professionals. Although pain perception has been recognized as a multi-dimensional phenomenon, a one-size-fits-all mantra of ‘pain is whatever the patient says it is’ has prevailed. A number of biological, sociocultural, and communication differences contribute to pain perception and self-report, requiring nurses’ clinical reasoning to assess pain appropriately (Schiavenato& Craig, 2010). Globally, a range of cultural norms impact on pain expression and reporting (Orhan et al., 2018), necessitating greater consideration of factors that influence...
