Abstract
The purpose of this project was to compare student satisfaction in high- and low-fidelity simulation experiences. The project took place at the Pittsburg State University Irene Ransom Bradley School of Nursing. Participants included 79 pre-licensure Fundamentals of Nursing students in their first semester of nursing school. Implementation took place in the Fall of 2022. Students underwent either a high- or low-fidelity patient simulation experience related to pneumonia. Upon completion of the scenario students were asked to voluntarily participate in a satisfaction questionnaire. The questionnaire was composed of 27 closed-ended questions. There was a statistically significant difference with higher satisfaction scores with the low-fidelity simulation compared to the high-fidelity.
