Perception of simulation-based education among nursing and midwifery students in Tanzania: a qualitative study
Nursing and midwifery students perceived simulation-based education as an effective method to prepare for clinical practice and quality neonatal care. Introducing simulation-based education in nursing education may benefit students' learning and strengthen the sustainability of skilled healthcare providers in low-income contexts where resources are scarce. Further research is needed to assess whether students can transfer knowledge into clinical skills practice.
