Beyond the bedside: Exploring the impact of simulation and performance-based learning on nursing students' competence in geriatric care
Background
Aging demographics heighten the need for undergraduate nurses who are prepared to deliver competent, compassionate geriatric care. Simulation and performance-based learning are increasingly used to bridge theory–practice gaps.
Aim
To explore undergraduate nursing students' experiences of simulation and performance-based learning and how these strategies shape perceived competence in geriatric care.
Design
Qualitative exploratory study.
Methods
Sixteen students who completed geriatric-focused simulation and performance assessments participated in semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi's seven-step approach. Trustworthiness was supported through member checking, audit trail, and peer debriefing.
Results
Four themes emerged: (1) bridging theory and practice; (2) developing empathy and emotional insight; (3) building professional confidence and identity; and (4) recognizing systemic barriers. Students reported enhanced clinical reasoning, greater familiarity with geriatric assessment tools, stronger empathic engagement, and increased readiness for practice, while noting constraints related to preceptor engagement and time in clinical settings.
Conclusions
Simulation and performance-based learning foster geriatric care competence across cognitive, affective, and professional domains. Aligning academic and clinical environments is crucial to sustain transfer of skills to practice.
Implications for nursing education
Early, longitudinal integration of geriatrics-focused simulation, structured debriefing, and preceptor-aligned clinical opportunities may strengthen readiness for an aging population.
期刊介绍:
Nurse Education Today is the leading international journal providing a forum for the publication of high quality original research, review and debate in the discussion of nursing, midwifery and interprofessional health care education, publishing papers which contribute to the advancement of educational theory and pedagogy that support the evidence-based practice for educationalists worldwide. The journal stimulates and values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic relevance for leaders of health care education.
The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of people, health and education systems worldwide, by publishing research that employs rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of education and systems globally. The journal will publish papers that show depth, rigour, originality and high standards of presentation, in particular, work that is original, analytical and constructively critical of both previous work and current initiatives.
Authors are invited to submit original research, systematic and scholarly reviews, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing and related health care education, and which will meet and develop the journal''s high academic and ethical standards.
