Simulation Canada Free Webinar: Then and Now… Using a Simulated Clinical Experience to Teach Maternal-Newborn Care in Nursing
8 December 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
This webinar is made free to Canada’s simulation community through the generous sponsorship of Gaumard Scientific.
Presenter: Jane Pearsall, RN, BNSc., M.Ed.
John Abbott College, Montréal, Québec
Providing high quality clinical experiences to prepare nursing students for the complexities of the current health-care system has become increasingly difficult. This webinar will explore the presenter’s experiences in the development of an Obstetrical Simulated Clinical Experience for nursing students as partial replacement of traditional in-hospital learning. Participants will gain insight into the challenges and rewards of utilizing this form of simulation pedagogy, as well as the importance of simulation design including both prebriefing and debriefing aspects.
Objectives: By the end of the session, the participant will be able to :
- Identify the common challenges and fears faced by health care educators when developing a simulated clinical experience
- Develop an understanding of the need to incorporate an empirically supported simulation framework, by reviewing examples that have fostered high quality learning environments for students including the prebriefing and debriefing process.
- Describe the rewards of simulation pedagogy to the teaching and learning experience
