Using the NCSBN Transition to Specific Practice Competency Tool to Develop a Multiple Patient Simulation

Abstract Because of complexities of clinical practice and limitations in the clinical setting, prelicensure nursing students may not develop competencies necessary for safe entry into practice. Multiple patient simulation (MPS) is an effective teaching strategy to gain these competencies. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing Transition to Practice Specific Competency Tool was used to assess and identify gaps in students’ knowledge and skills when designing an MPS. This unique approach allowed faculty to customize the MPS to meet the needs of students and potentially increase their readiness for practice.
