Best practices in nursing

在全球范围内，医疗保健行业正缺乏合格的临床护理提供者。这在护理领域尤其明显。医院经常面临承担财务任务的压力，正在降低护理人员比率，这使护士感到沉重负担。此外，近年来，护理领域发生了变化。由于当今的患者群体需要越来越复杂的护理，因此预计护士的技能和责任将提高。但是，缺乏临床实践时间并不能使护士为应对当今医疗保健环境的挑战做好准备。

Nurses are in high demand all over the world, and the demand continues to increase. Globally, the need for nurses is increasing as the aging population is estimated to require roughly 50% of all healthcare resources by 2020. Nursing shortage numbers are critical, with at least 10 million new nurses needed worldwide.

在这个变化和挑战的时候，不仅是更好的prepared nurses are essential to meet the needs of the changing landscape of healthcare. Educators need to be equipped with the knowledge, skills, and behaviors to create and deliver experiential learning encounters that promote reflective practice and result in measureable outcomes.

Increasingly, the use of simulation-based education has been adopted to enhance or supplement classroom learning and clinical experiences. Simulation can also be used for student remediation on selected skills, to assess students’ clinical competencies and decision-making skills, and to orient students to clinical challenges that they may not encounter directly or regularly, but for which they need to be prepared. Simulation can be used to accelerate the transition to practice, to improve onboarding efficiency, to enhance professional training programs, and ultimately, to help improve patient outcomes.

The nursing profession has expanded its scope, responsibility, skills and education and as a result different ways of developing competence are required. A growing body of research suggests that educating faculty to implement best practices in simulation is essential to a successful program.

通过基于模拟的学习，学生可以在对安全环境中获得必要的信心，从而经历成功和错误。当在实际护理设置中应用时，原位模拟通过使用团队每天使用的团队的真实环境协议，流程和设备来促进培训效率。通过在医疗保健专业人员的培训中包括低频，高敏锐的仿真活动，学生们学会了冷静而准确地照顾高风险情况下的患者。基于仿真的教育可以有效地教育，培训和船上高质量的护士，同时减少技能缺陷并提供工具来帮助解决护理差距，以帮助挽救更多的生命。

Designed with nurses in mind, our nursing solutions focus on the identification of learning objectives that can be achieved with simulation. Once the appropriate learning objectives are established, content is defined to support the objectives. Finally, the right tool or tools are recommended to implement the simulation experience. Based on the most current nursing curricula, we have integrated extensive customer feedback to ensure we meet the specific needs of our users. Laerdal is committed to supporting nursing programs with the tools, support and service necessary to help our customers achieve their goals and help save more lives.
