Clinical simulation in nursing education

Clinical simulation in nursing education involves using realistic, controlled scenarios—such as mannequins, role-playing, or virtual environments—to help students practice and develop essential skills. These simulations mimic real healthcare situations, allowing students to gain confidence, clinical judgment, and technical proficiency without risking patient safety. It provides a hands-on, interactive learning experience where students can learn from mistakes, receive feedback, and refine their abilities before working with actual patients. This approach enhances preparedness and competence in real clinical settings.
