Abstract
Aim. This study examined the effect of using simulation training method on enabling student nurses in advanced pre-hospital care.
Background. Disaster nursing includes especial operational skills to manage disasters victims. These skills mainly include advanced pre-hospital care. To teach these skills, simulation in workshop environment is one of the most valuable and effective methods, one type of which is the use of live models in scenarios of various events that can be implemented and practiced in simulated
environment.
Method. This study was conducted by a quasi-experimental design in which 7 30th semester student nurses were recruited by census sampling and undergone training by simulation method. In this study, three tools (questionnaire, clinical evaluation form, and self-assessment form) were used. The data were managed and analyzed by SPSS, version 16. Findings. At the end of workshop in a simulated environment, %100 of students scored at good level. Also, in terms of pre-hospital skills, %100 of students scored at proficient level. In addition, after the workshop, %100 of students evaluated themselves at completely dominant level.
Conclusion. The results of this study indicate that training by simulation method can teach student nurses the knowledge and necessary skills for pre-hospital emergency care in the best way. Besides, it can improve students' self-assessment on their capabilities.
