Background: Nursing educators must ensure that nursing students acquire the necessary competencies; finding the most purposeful teaching methods and encouraging learning through meaningful learning opportunities is necessary to meet this goal. We investigated student learning in a simulated nursing practice using videography.
Objectives: The purpose of this paper is to examine how two different teaching methods presented students' meaningful learning in a simulated nursing experience.
Design: The 6-hour study was divided into three parts: part I, general information; part II, training; and part III, simulated nursing practice. Part II was delivered by two different methods: a computer-based simulation and a lecture.
Settings: The study was carried out in the simulated nursing practice in two universities of applied sciences, in Northern Finland.
Participants: The participants in parts II and I were 40 first year nursing students; 12 student volunteers continued to part III.
Methods: Qualitative analysis method was used. The data were collected using video recordings and analyzed by videography.
Results: The students who used a computer-based simulation program were more likely to report meaningful learning themes than those who were first exposed to lecture method.
Conclusion: Educators should be encouraged to use computer-based simulation teaching in conjunction with other teaching methods to ensure that nursing students are able to receive the greatest educational benefits.

High-fidelity simulation training for improving nursing professional values acquisition.
Nurs Ethics
January 2025
Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
Background: Nursing professional values form the basis of nursing interventions and serve as a guide for professional practice, reflecting in all interactions with patients and other healthcare professionals. As nursing professional values constitute powerful influencers in nursing practice, a strong commitment to these values is essential for nursing students to provide high-quality care.
Aim: To evaluate the impact of high-fidelity simulation training on first-year nursing students' nursing professional values acquisition.
Palliative Care Initiated in the Emergency Department: A Cluster Randomized Clinical Trial.
JAMA
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Henry Ford Health, Detroit, Michigan.
Importance: The emergency department (ED) offers an opportunity to initiate palliative care for older adults with serious, life-limiting illness.
Objective: To assess the effect of a multicomponent intervention to initiate palliative care in the ED on hospital admission, subsequent health care use, and survival in older adults with serious, life-limiting illness.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Cluster randomized, stepped-wedge, clinical trial including patients aged 66 years or older who visited 1 of 29 EDs across the US between May 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022, had 12 months of prior Medicare enrollment, and a Gagne comorbidity score greater than 6, representing a risk of short-term mortality greater than 30%.
Investigation of airborne contaminant transmissions using network models: COVID-19 outbreak and potential risk in senior care facilities.

Department of Building Research, Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology, Goyang-Si, 10223, Korea.
Many COVID-19 outbreaks occurred in senior care facilities during the last three years. Senior care facilities are nursing places for the long-term treatment and care of senior citizens, who are prone to be exposed to an infectious disease that spreads into these buildings. Therefore, this study investigated airborne contaminant transmissions based on outbreak cases in senior care facilities in Korea and analyzed the potential impact of architectural features in a selected senior care facility using network simulations.

Advancing nursing practice to improve care and system outcomes requires doctoral-prepared nurses to conduct programs of research and translate science to practice. The authors describe a Doctoral support group (DSG) at one hospital designed to support nurses considering and navigating doctoral education while continuing as hospital employees. Strategies from 18 years' experience are provided for others to develop and sustain a DSG as part of an environment to support and retain nurses with doctoral degrees.
