NR535 Simulation Best Practices: Design Challenge
Name:
General Instructions
Carefully read the assignment guidelines and rubric and complete each section of the simulation design template below using the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL)
Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice
(2021) to help guide your simulation design and planning. Answer all prompts in complete sentences and support your responses with at least three scholarly sources.
Simulation Overview
Briefly describe the setting in which the simulation will take place (academic or non-academic).
[
Type here
]
Briefly describe the learners (e.g., students, new graduate nurses, etc.), including their level of experience.
[
Type here
]
List the nursing competency (e.g., managing sepsis, end-of-life care, etc.) the simulation is intended to address and explain why this is appropriate for your setting and learners.
[
Type here
]
In one paragraph, provide a synopsis of the simulation scenario.

Prebriefing: Preparation and Briefing Plan
Describe one strategy you will use to establish a respectful, inclusive, and psychologically safe environment.
[
Type here
]
Describe three aspects of the simulation experience (e.g., learner roles, learning objectives, etc.) that you will use the prebriefing time to clarify for learners.
[
Type here
]
Describe two ways you will orient learners to the simulation space, equipment, and scenario.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will ensure the prebriefing process is standardized and consistently implemented across all simulation sessions.
[
Type here
]
Facilitation Strategies
Describe how the facilitation of the simulation will be adapted to the learners’ level of experience.
[
Type here
]
Describe two evidence-based facilitation strategies you will include in the simulation experience.
[
Type here
]
Describe one strategy you will use to help maintain realism and support learning during the simulation.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will adjust your facilitation strategies in real-time based on learner needs and scenario progression.
[
Type here
]
The Debriefing Process
Select an evidence-based debriefing model and provide rationale for your choice.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will ensure the educators are competent in the use of the chosen debriefing model.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will encourage learners to engage in the debriefing process.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will ensure psychological safety during the debriefing process.
[
Type here
]
Evaluation Tools
Identify the evidence-based evaluation tool you plan to use for this simulation.
[
Type here
]
Explain how the evaluation tool aligns with the stated learning objectives.
[
Type here
]
Describe how you will ensure evaluation consistency among educators to promote fair and objective evaluation.
[
Type here
]
Explain whether this tool will be used for formative assessment, summative assessment, or both. Provide rationale.
[
Type here
]
Operational and Staffing Considerations
Describe one strategy you will employ to ensure educators and staff are adequately trained in simulation pedagogy, technology, and scenario management.
[
Type here
]
List four specific resources (e.g., IV pump, standardized patient, etc.) needed to meet learning goals for this simulation.
[
Type here
]
Detail how much time you will allot for prebriefing, scenario execution, and debriefing. Support your answer with rationale.
