Abstract

Background

The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) Survey of Simulation Use in Prelicensure Nursing Programs tool was employed to gather descriptive information from nursing programs in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). A total of 39 nursing programs from 10 countries participated.

Purpose

To benchmark the prevalence, use, and regulation of simulation in MENA nursing programs.

Methods

The NCSBN Survey of Simulation Use in Prelicensure Nursing Programs tool was communicated either electronically or in person to multiple nursing programs in the MENA region. Descriptive data, ideas, and opinions were collected.

Results

Of the 93 MENA programs contacted, 39 returned a completed survey. According to survey responses, simulation use in nursing programs is widespread. Simulation is commonly used to enhance instruction, to support skill acquisition, and as a substitute for clinical hours. Respondents viewed therapeutic communication, patient education, compassion, and demonstration of critical thinking as unsuitable for simulation.

Conclusion

Simulation is appreciated as a critical tool in nursing education in the MENA region. Limitations in clinical space, time, and complex patient situations and opposite gender care are driving factors for simulation use. Challenges related to space, funding, and training limit the availability of simulation in a region where more simulation is both needed and desired.

中东和北非护士执照预备课程模拟应用的探索性调查

国家护理委员会全国委员会(NCSBN)的模拟使用的调查工具，以收集描述性信息，从护理计划在中东和北非(MENA)。共有来自10个国家的39个护理项目参与。目的了解模拟在中东和北非护理专业的流行、使用和管理情况。方法采用电子或面对面的方式向中东和北非地区的多个护理计划进行NCSBN模拟使用调查。收集描述性数据、想法和意见。在我们联系的93个中东和北非项目中，39个项目回复了一份完整的调查。根据调查结果，模拟在护理程序中的应用是广泛的。模拟通常用于加强教学，支持技能习得，并作为临床时间的替代。受访者认为治疗沟通、患者教育、同情和批判性思维示范不适合模拟。结论模拟教学是中东和北非地区护理教育的重要手段。临床空间、时间、复杂的患者情况和异性护理的限制是模拟使用的驱动因素。与空间、资金和培训相关的挑战限制了模拟在需要和期望更多模拟的地区的可用性。

期刊介绍： Journal of Nursing Regulation (JNR), the official journal of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN®), is a quarterly, peer-reviewed, academic and professional journal. It publishes scholarly articles that advance the science of nursing regulation, promote the mission and vision of NCSBN, and enhance communication and collaboration among nurse regulators, educators, practitioners, and the scientific community. The journal supports evidence-based regulation, addresses issues related to patient safety, and highlights current nursing regulatory issues, programs, and projects in both the United States and the international community. In publishing JNR, NCSBN''s goal is to develop and share knowledge related to nursing and other healthcare regulation across continents and to promote a greater awareness of regulatory issues among all nurses.
