Objective: to identify evidence about the use and effects of clinical simulation for preparing caregivers for discharging patients with chronic conditions.

Methods: an integrative peer review in the Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, ScienceDirect and Virtual Health Library databases, from July to September 2022.

Results: 3,218 studies were identified, with a final sample consisting of four national and two international articles. Using simulation as an educational technology contributed to caregiver preparation in home care. In most studies, using clinical simulation included using other strategies to complement training: expository dialogued class, conversation circle and audiovisual resources.

Final Considerations: simulation proved to be efficient for training caregivers, with the active participation of family members and nurses in health education actions.
