Abstract

Simulation is an immersive experience allowing learners to gain understanding of real conditions to improve their knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The National Organization for Nurse Practitioner Faculty (NONPFT) released guidelines for NP faculty on best practices and guidelines for simulation yet implementation into graduate programs has not been fully implemented. This review explores current evidence on simulation effectiveness, student and faculty satisfaction, best practices, evaluation, debriefing, and the effectiveness of faculty development simulation education program (FDSEP) on faculty knowledge and attitudes. The literature provides evidence that simulation is an effective teaching strategy promoting critical thinking, increased knowledge acquisition, interdisciplinary communication. Students are highly satisfied and have increased self-confidence after simulation. Faculty who are competent in facilitating simulation are satisfied with student learning and bridging theory to practice. Simulation-based faculty development programs can improve faculty knowledge and confidence in effectively facilitating simulation debriefing.
