Designing, using and evaluating the effects of nursing clinical skills training software on the clinical skill level and satisfaction of nursing students

This study indicates that incorporating educational simulation software as a supplement to traditional lectures and to hospital-based clinical practice may enhance students' knowledge and skill. However, limitations such as single-site sample and the potential variability in implementation across instructors and clinical settings; reliance on self-reported outcomes could have influenced responses. Future research should employ examine long-term retention and impact on patient care outcomes and explore stakeholder experiences to identify best practices for integrating educational simulation into nursing curricula.
