While confrontingmany challenges related to changes in health care, higher education, and clinical practice, nurse educators are exploring new opportunities for innovative teaching/learning methods, new clinical models, and educational practices to provide high-quality educationtopromoteoptimal,qualitypatient care.Clinical simulations canprovidehealthcareeducatorswithoneapproach tocreate student- centered, experiential environments that engage and prepare the learner for real-worldpractice. Clinical Simulations in Nursing Education: Advanced Concepts, Trends, and Opportunities provides chapters authored by expert simulation researchers, educators, andusers to shed lighton important advancements andemerging topics in clinical simulation. Features • Enhanced interprofessional educationandpractice through simulation. • Meaningful debriefing. • Expansionof clinical simulationglobally. • Developmentof agoodbusiness planand considerationof the economicmodel of a simulation center. • Researchandevaluationof clinical simulation. • High-stakes simulation. • Certificationof educators andaccreditationof simulation centers.
