ABSTRACT
Background:
Medical simulation is an important educational method in nursing through practical experience in controlled conditions. The aim of this study was to determine the level of satisfaction of nursing students with the classes taken at the Medical Simulation Center.
Material and methods:
The study involved 137 undergraduate nursing students from 2 universities in the Kielce area, Poland. The research tool was an own questionnaire consisting of 33 closed questions.
Results:
The students were mostly (97.08%) of the opinion that the scenario played out was as real as possible and the situation that occurred could take place in their future professional work. Pre-briefing was rated very highly, with the highest score (76.64%). De-briefing was rated equally highly, with the vast majority (78.10%) giving it the highest rating. According to the majority of respondents, the classes met their expectations very well (56.20%) and well (35.77%).
Conclusions:
Students rated the activities at the Medical Simulation Center very highly, considering them useful in their future professional work. Both pre-briefing and de-briefing were conducted very well and the global evaluation of the classes was statistically significant depending on age, year of study and type of university.
