Simulation drills aim to slash nursing student errors
NCT ID NCT07349355
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether realistic simulation training can help senior nursing students make fewer medical errors and have better attitudes about patient safety. About 81 students will take part. The goal is to see if practicing in a safe, fake hospital setting improves their skills and confidence before they work with real patients.
