The National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculties supports the incorporation of telehealth in nurse practitioner (NP) education.
The purpose of this article is to describe the implementation of a no-cost telehealth simulation and its impact on students in their first NP clinical course.
Twenty-eight NP students participated in the telehealth objective structured clinical examination (OSCE). Students completed an online survey about the impact of telehealth OSCE simulation both before and after the simulation.
The students' general understanding of the field of telehealth was significantly greater after the telehealth OSCE experience. Directed content analysis revealed 3 themes: usefulness of telehealth, benefit in role preparation, and technology.
The use of telehealth simulation can be an effective strategy to assess clinical competency, provide individualized feedback, and ensure students are using evidence-based practice.
国家护士从业者学院组织支持将远程医疗纳入护士从业者(NP)教育。
本文的目的是描述无成本远程医疗模拟的实施及其对学生在其第一个 NP 临床课程中的影响。
28 名 NP 学生参加了远程医疗客观结构化临床考试(OSCE)。学生在模拟前后完成了一项关于远程医疗 OSCE 模拟影响的在线调查。
学生对远程医疗领域的总体理解在远程医疗 OSCE 体验后显著提高。定向内容分析揭示了 3 个主题:远程医疗的有用性、角色准备的好处和技术。
使用远程医疗模拟可以是一种评估临床能力、提供个性化反馈和确保学生使用循证实践的有效策略。
