Simulation training could boost teamwork for future nurses and paramedics
NCT ID NCT07655752
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test whether a simulation-based training program improves teamwork attitudes among nursing and paramedic students during patient handovers. Fifty-six senior students will participate in exercises using the ATMIST handover method, followed by debriefing. Researchers will measure changes in teamwork attitudes using a validated questionnaire.

- Simulation-Based Interprofessional Education Program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that simulation training improves teamwork between future nurses and paramedics, potentially leading to safer patient handovers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 56 students from one university, so results may not apply broadly. It measures attitudes, not actual patient outcomes.
