STUDENT ROLES DURING SIMULATION:
You are the staff nurse at the hospital who will be conducting a comprehensive assessment. After completing your assessment, you are expected to document your findings as a nurses note in SBAR format.
KEY FEATURES OF i-HUMAN:
- As the nurse, you are expected to complete the case scenario using the following tabs: EHR, History, Physical, Nursing Notes, Summary
- There are required questions and/or additional information provided related to this case. The questions, information, and videos must be completed/reviewed prior to progressing to the next tab.
- Nursing Notes: At the end of the simulation, you will document your assessment findings using ISBAR.
CONFIDENTIALITY:
To preserve the educational value, integrity, and safety of the learning environment, you agree to maintain strict confidentiality about the proceedings of the simulation session, details of the training scenarios, and the performance of all participants. You acknowledge that this expectation aligns with the guidelines related to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) as well as laws governing Protected Health Information (PHI) in client care environments. You will not view, discuss, share, record, or disclose any confidential information pertaining to the session. You understand that lapses in confidentiality are considered academic misconduct and could result in dismissal from the academic program.
FICTION AGREEMENT:
You will suspend judgment of realism for any given simulation in exchange for the promise of learning new knowledge and skills, treating the simulated patients with the same care due an actual patient, act with a genuine desire to learn even when it may be difficult to do so.
DUE DATE:
The virtual simulation must be completed during Week 3 .
SIMULATION TIMING:
- Pre-simulation preparation: 30-60 minutes
- Pre-brief: 15 minutes
- Run Time: 2.75 hours
- Debriefing: 60 minutes
ASSESSMENT & EVALUATION
Faculty will utilize your participation measurements in the i-Human case, and debriefing discussions to identify areas of opportunity for enhancement of your clinical growth. Your experiences in i-Human will contribute to your overall completion of clinical requirements for the course as documented on the Clinical Learning Evaluation tool.
