“…From the instructor opinions, they felt that the simulation setting was appropriate and that the participants were able to communicate in a realistic atmosphere, so we do not see any problem with the simulation session using a digital simulated patient. Ortega et al (2022) [9] suggest that online simulations may be more immersive for active observers than face-to-face Situation-Based-Training. In addition, learners who participated in the Virtual gaming simulation (VGS) reported that the VGS was very realistic, similar to a clinical experience [10].…”

We organized a family nursing seminar employing virtual simulation for home visiting nurses. The seminar utilized gamification and a digitally simulated family to enhance family nursing competence. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a seminar by conducting a β test of a virtual simulation. This study employed a descriptive design. Study period was from November of 2022 to January of 2023. Study participants were seven home visiting nurses at four Home-Visit Nursing Agencies in Japan. In the virtual simulation, participants communicated with the digitally simulated family created with Unreal Engine 5.0.0. Before and after the seminar, participants were asked to complete the Family Nursing Competency Scale and data were gathered through an open-ended questionnaire. The total scores on the Family Nursing Practice Competence Scale all increased after the seminar. In feedback, the instructor commented that the simulation scenarios and level of difficulty were appropriate but that the time schedule needed to be revised. Participants also commented on the reality and tension in the digitally simulated family and the lack of discussion. The integration of gamification and the digitally simulated family was positively accepted and increased the sense of reality and tension of the participants. However, there were problems with the recognition of achievement, time management of the debriefing sessions. Further modifications to this seminar design are needed.

Evaluation of communication skills from a 360° perspective at simulatedTele-rehabilitation scenarios Background: Communication skills (CS) are competencies required by health professionals. Clinical simulation with a simulated/standardized patient (SP) is a good resource for teaching this skill. However, it requires trained teachers to guide the process. Not all teachers have this training. HC short evaluation instruments are required to develop a structured observation during the activity, especially those that can be applied by all the participants to guide and understand the process from a broader perspective. Aim: Validate a short HC assessment questionnaire to evaluate these skills from a 360° analysis, i.e., from the learner, facilitator/teacher, and PS perspective. Method: A brief HC questionnaire was created, subjected to construct and content validity, and thus applied to 40 Kinesiology undergraduate students, facilitator/teacher, and PS during a simulated teleconsultation scenario. We analyzed the result of the communication by descriptive statistics, Lashe, Cronbach, KMO, Bartlett, IVC, Fisher and Cohen tests, and exploratory factorial analysis. Results:The questionnaire showed content validity for 5 of 6 items. Construct validity with commonalities over 50% for each item. With good reliability (Cronbach's alpha > 0.79). We found high levels of HC in the students, but the concordance between observers was weak (Cohen's Kappa < 0.4). Conclusion: The short questionnaire for HC is a valid assessment tool during clinical simulation. Incorporating the views and perceptions of all the simulation participants can improve the understanding of health communication.
