NCT ID NCT07557082

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study will test whether nursing students learn fall risk assessment better with a live actor (standard patient) or a web-based simulation. About 120 first-year nursing students will take part, and their knowledge and skills will be measured before and after training. The goal is to find the most effective way to teach patient safety.
