“…Students need to also be aware that often the nursing care is also extended to the family of the dying person [22]. Addressing this gap in knowledge so that undergraduate nursing students are prepared for future practice would seem vital yet there is little evidence in the literature that this occurs.…”

“…This was supported by Ellman et al [18] in a study which used an online 'live interactive simulation' to allow interdisciplinary students to reflect, particularly on the spiritual and cultural facets of end of life care. Eaton et al [22] in their phenomenological study of simulation in end of life care found three themes of: experiential learning, affirmative outcomes and family which they felt affirmed the value of using simulation to teach end of life care.…”

“…Simulation is presented by several authors as a useful strategy in preparing students for end of life scenarios [17,18,22,24,[26][27][28][29][30], particularly as opportunities to care for these people while learning may be limited. Simulation was found to be effective in increasing knowledge, self-confidence [26,28,29], self-reported communication skills and student satisfaction [26].…”

Objectives: This article examines the literature currently available to explore the readiness of students and new graduate nurses when faced with death and dying within the workplace.Design: This study was a systematic literature review on research articles from peer reviewed journals using the PRISMA framework.Data sources: Databases utilised in the search included EBSCOHost, Primo Search and Google Scholar.Review methods: Key search terms included new graduate nurses, life limiting illness, nursing undergraduate, nursing students, palliative care. Abstracts of these articles were reviewed to ensure that they related to new graduate and undergraduate nurse experiences with death and dying. Further interrogation of the reference lists located another 39 articles for possible inclusion. Duplicates were removed. Articles for inclusion were to be full text articles available in English and within the date range of 2009 to 2015. This left a total of 31 articles for the review.Results: From the review four key themes emerged. These were; the importance of palliative care in undergraduate nursing curricula, readiness for dealing with death and dying, the death experience for different patient populations and education strategies. Conclusions:There is an increasing emphasis on education strategies to assist with the end of life care knowledge and skills for nursing students. Simulation is seen to be a positive way to provide undergraduate education in end of life care as simulated exposure to dying patients is recognised as an effective means alleviating anxiety regarding death and the care of dying patients. While palliative care is viewed as an important aspect of undergraduate nursing education it is recognised as an area of practice that undergraduate nurses feel they are not adequately prepared for. Undergraduate education needs to incorporate skills such as having conversations and communicating effectively with patients and families experiencing end of life issues.

“…SPs are a better choice than human patient simulators or manikins when the focus of learning involves patients' psychosocial or emotional responses (Sideras, et al, 2013). The use of SPs can be particularly valuable in psychosocial settings where a human voice is needed (Eaton, Floyd, & Brooks, 2012;Ndiwane, Omanand, & Theroux, 2013;RobinsonSmith, Bradley, & Meakim, 2009). With the end goal of increasing students' awareness and appreciation of diverse religious beliefs, the purpose of this pilot study was to implement and evaluate the use of a simulation experience using SPs to teach spiritual care at the end of life.…”

“…The Gilliland et al (2012) study only involved pharmacy students but was the only single professional study to recognize the interdisciplinary aspects of palliative and end-of-life care. The three studies that report participants gaining insight into service user views were all nursing studies (Eaton, Floyd, & Brooks, 2012;Fabro et al, 2014;Leighton & Dubas, 2009). Seven studies found that simulation allows students to gain insights into how they personally might feel when caring for a dying person.…”
