Abstract
The use of human patient simulation (HPS) is needed more than ever in nursing curriculum today (Bambini, Washburn, & Perkins, 2009). One reason is that it allows students to practice critical thinking and decision-making skills in a safe environment (Howard, Ross, Mitchell, & Nelson, 2010; Medley & Horne, 2005). HPS also creates situations where other learning outcomes, such as communication, teamwork, a better understanding of classroom material, and improved psychomotor skills, are achieved (Bambini et al., 2009; McGaghie, Issenberg, Petrusa, & Scalese, 2006).
