“…The post simulation student survey [15] results suggested that students had higher confidence in their skills after simulation experiences. This conclusion confirmed previous studies [16] where students also reported a rise in confidence after implementing simulation.…”

Background: Student test scores in the pediatric portion were at a national percentile rank of 30, which was concerning. It was theorized that the main contributor to this dilemma was that the majority of students were not able to have a pediatric clinical experience. Objective: The purpose of this project was to determine if the addition of pediatric simulation scenarios would have an impact on student learning as evidenced by end of level test scores. Method: A convenience sample (n = 100) of first year nursing students attending a university in the western United States participated in this project. This was a mixed methods study. A quasi-experimental design was used to compare test scores of both a non-intervention group and an intervention group of students. A 5 point Likert scale questionnaire was also using post-intervention to assess for changes in perceptions of self-confidence. Results: After implementation of the pediatric focused scenarios, students' test scores increased to the 95th percentile. This 65 percentile increase is a significant change that suggests that pediatric simulation is effective in improving student exam performance. In addition, 81% of students also reported perceptions of increased levels of self-confidence after implementation of simulation scenarios. Conclusion: The findings suggest that simulation is an effective way to create alternative pediatric clinical experiences which can, in turn, increase student comprehension, test scores, and self-confidence.

“…Not all competencies were integrated equally; patient–centered care and safety were incorporated most frequently. This finding confirms the results reported in a pilot observational study by Pauly-O’Neill et al (2013). They investigated whether simulation settings offered opportunities to practice the six QSEN competencies and demonstrated that evidence-based practice, quality improvement, and informatics were more difficult to integrate.…”

“…Of these, six were based on course content. Seven instruments were developed to evaluate QSEN KSAs in a clinical/simulation setting (Altmiller, 2017; Leighton et al, 2015; Pauly-O’Neill et al, 2013; Piscotty et al, 2011; Poore et al, 2018; Tanz, 2018). One was developed in Sweden to evaluate the representation of QSEN competencies in clinical evaluation instruments used by nursing instructors (Nygårdh et al, 2017).…”

The aim of this scoping review was to map teaching strategies incorporating Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) competencies and assessment tools based on the QSEN framework. METHOD The search was conducted through MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases and carried out through the framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley and revised by Levac et al. RESULTS Thirty-one studies were included. Among QSEN competences, patient-centered care, safety, and teamwork and collaboration were most frequently incorporated into teaching strategies. Most assessment tools aimed at capturing the achievement of QSEN competencies after a classroom learning experience. CONCLUSION The scoping review made it possible to identify various teaching strategies and assessment tools developed on the QSEN framework. Further studies are needed to test teaching strategies to facilitate students' acquisition of QSEN competencies in clinical environments.KEY WORDS Assessment Tools -QSEN Competencies -Quality and Safety Education for Nurses -Teaching Strategies -Scoping Review P atient safety and quality of care are issues of global interest. Each health care system is responsible for identifying national strategies to improve the quality and safety of care and patient outcomes in all health care settings (Sherwood & Nikel, 2017).

“…Students want to transfer learning to the workplace and new situations and must "demonstrate their learning in authentic contexts for workplace readiness" [6]. In most states, simulation is not accepted as a substitute for clinical experience, although this has been studied [7] [8].…”

Executing an effective clinical practicum experience for distance learners requires systems to be in place to ensure that all students receive a quality clinical experience and meet course and program objectives. Key to achieving these successful outcomes is recognizing and overcoming the challenges involved in designing graduate practica for Master of Science in nursing candidates. A systematic approach is presented for consideration.
