Simulated nursing video consultations: an innovative proposal during Covid-19 confinement

Abstract

Background In response to the closure of universities and the canceling of in-person classes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this study was designed to focus on a solution for adapting simulation-based education to this situation. Method A mixed study was conducted to analyze nursing students’ satisfaction and perceptions (n = 48) about simulated nursing video consultations. Results Nursing students expressed a high level of satisfaction and positive perceptions about this innovative proposal. Conclusions Simulated nursing video consultations could be considered as another choice of high-fidelity simulation not only in the current COVID-19 situation, but its use could be extended to other contexts.
