As a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the majority of nursing schools in the United States have had to transition to remote learning until further notice or even for the remainder of the academic year. This change, as well as obstacles presented by intensified safety measures in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare environments, has led to a reduction or complete cancellation of clinical rotations for nursing students.

在许多领域，2020年的医疗保健工作者处于困境中 - 无法履行其所需的患者护理时间来毕业，无法在医疗保健方面的领先优势提供帮助。幸运的是，一些教育者正在转向基于电子学习和基于模拟的培训，以替代临床培训，否则他们的学习者将完全失去。州级监管机构正在提供必要的支持以验证他们的努力。

这是护理学校使学生步入正轨以满足其临床要求的一些方法：

没有能力教典型的课程或提供动手临床培训，护理教育者几乎一致通过电子学习作为其主要教学方法。具体而言，现在很大一部分护理学校正在分配virtual simulations，旨在模仿真正的护理场景。

Requiring only an internet-enabled computer,learners can interact with a patient in a safe, realistic online environment。在整个虚拟模拟中，根据他们采取的行动，为学习者提供了个性化的反馈。而且，作为额外的奖励，学习者可以重复模拟，直到他们感到自信并有能力治疗患者为止。

Among the many benefits of virtual simulation is that it is engaging. That's a paramount factor when competing against any number of diversions in people's home environments during this time.

In addition to using eLearning, institutions with an established simulation lab are relying on video recorded simulations to support learners' clinical understanding. This involves educators recording themselves participating in a simulated patient case and then hosting a live debriefing session with the learners.

In order to make this a rich learning experience for viewers, the理想的视频录制系统不仅捕获音频和视频，还可以捕获注释，患者监视器和模拟器数据（如果使用）。然而，这种学习方法中最有影响力的部分（可以说，任何模拟）是汇报。通过积极的参与和对话，学习者可以将自己放在提供者的鞋子上，并剖析所采用的临床途径的每一部分。

笔记：In 2014, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) published a study showing that simulation experiences could successfully substitute for up to 50% of traditional clinical hours. Some NRBs accepted the NCSBN’s guidelines, while others maintained much lower simulation thresholds until now.

除了提高教育方法的灵活性外，一些国家NRB暂时暂时暂时暂停初始许可或续签许可证的要求。这是对新医疗人员最需要的新医疗人员的管道正在停止的问题的回应。

例如，宾夕法尼亚州宣布，由于COVID-19造成的取消，将在注册护士（RN）的监督下授权执业，因此无法参加许可考试的护理学校毕业生。¹而且，练习RN在其RN毕业生或临时许可证上获得90天的扩展。

By prioritizing senior nursing students, who are closer to graduation, nursing schools are prepping them to be able to enter the field as soon as possible.
