Understanding the student's experience of community health nursing simulations.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore nursing students' experiences after completing community health nursing simulation encounters.

Methods: The study used a descriptive qualitative design. Through conventional content analysis, the research team analyzed the experiences of 73 nursing students after participating in community health nursing simulation encounters.

Using simulation to evaluate exam scores in a public health nursing course.

Objective: Public health nursing courses typically incorporate clinical components but rarely offer simulation education as part of clinical practice. There is limited research examining the impact of simulation for public health nursing courses on final exam scores. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of simulation training on final exam scores in a public health nursing course.
