Simulation showdown: will fake patients produce better nurses?
NCT ID NCT07415057
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using simulation (practicing with mannequins or actors) helps first-year nursing students become better communicators compared to traditional teaching methods like role-play and group discussion. Fifty students will be randomly assigned to either simulation or standard classes, and their communication skills and confidence will be measured before and after. The goal is to find the best way to train nurses to talk clearly and compassionately with patients.
