Introduction: We assessed the effectiveness of a simulation-based education program to improve novice nurses' clinical judgment skills.
Methods: A simulation education program was implemented for 21 novice nurses. Surveys were conducted on program satisfaction, learning, and clinical judgment skills before, immediately after, and two months after the program.
Background: The purpose of this study was to develop a scale to assess the clinical judgment of nurses based on the clinical judgment process.
Method: Based on a qualitative analysis of interviews with specialized and certified nurses and extant literature, a scale comprising 44 question items was created. A questionnaire survey was conducted with 1,444 nurses working in 28 general hospitals, psychiatric wards, cardiac care units, and intensive care units in Japan.
