Tags: Nurse Education virtual learning virtual professor

Simulation has long been recognized as an effective instructional method in nursing education. The use of virtual reality simulation as compared with traditional simulation, adds a new dimension to the complexity of simulated patient care.

Results demonstrated an improvement in clinical competencies.
