NSG 3039 Discussion Simulation in Healthcare

To support your work, use your course and textbook readings
and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite
your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA
format.

Tasks:

Topic 1

Simulation technology has been transformative in nursing
education. Through the use of simulation, nurses can repeatedly practice skills
and gain clinical confidence in a risk-free environment. Simulation, however,
is not just for health care professionals. How can nurses leverage simulation
technology for patient and family education? Share your experiences and ideas
for leveraging simulation technology for patient education.

Topic 2

IT can be a great tool in our caring environment, but it can
also be perceived as a hindrance. Recent patient satisfaction surveys have had
comments such as “the nurse and the doctor were more interested in the computer
than me” and “I felt like they were treating the machines not the person

connected to them.”

You read in your textbook about Jean Watson and her Theory
of Human Caring. How can we, as nurses, ensure that the patient understands
that he or she is at the center of our care and that the technology is an
adjunct to it? Share your experiences and ideas to ensure a patient-focused
experience in a high-tech environment.

NOTE: A zero is the lowest score that a student can be assigned. In discussions, you, as a student, will interact with your instructor and classmates to explore topics related to the content of this course. You will be graded for the following. 1. Attendance Discussions (graded): Discussions are a critical learning experience in the online classroom. Participation in all discussions is required. 2. Guidelines and Rubric for Discussions PURPOSE: Threaded discussions are designed to promote dialogue between faculty and students, and students and their peers. In the discussions students: Demonstrate understanding of concepts for the week Integrate scholarly resources Engage in meaningful dialogue with classmates Express opinions clearly and logically, in a professional manner Participation Requirement: You are required to post a minimum of three (3) times in each graded discussion.

Threaded Discussion Guiding Principles The ideas and beliefs underpinning the threaded discussions (TDs) guide students through engaging dialogues as they achieve the desired learning outcomes/competencies associated with their course in a manner that empowers them to organize, integrate, apply and critically appraise their knowledge to their selected field of practice. The use of TDs provides students with opportunities to contribute level-appropriate knowledge and experience to the topic in a safe, caring, and fluid environment that models professional and social interaction. The TD’s ebb and flow is based upon the composition of student and faculty interaction in the quest for relevant scholarship. Participation in the TDs generates opportunities for students to actively engage in the written ideas of others by carefully reading, researching, reflecting, and responding to the contributions of their peers and course faculty. TDs foster the development of members into a community of learners as they share ideas and inquiries, consider perspectives that may be different from their own, and integrate knowledge from other disciplines. 4.

3. Threaded Discussion Guiding Principles

The ideas and beliefs underpinning the threaded discussions (TDs) guide students through engaging dialogues as they achieve the desired learning outcomes/competencies associated with their course in a manner that empowers them to organize, integrate, apply and critically appraise their knowledge to their selected field of practice. The use of TDs provides students with opportunities to contribute level-appropriate knowledge and experience to the topic in a safe, caring, and fluid environment that models professional and social interaction. The TD’s ebb and flow is based upon the composition of student and faculty interaction in the quest for relevant scholarship. Participation in the TDs generates opportunities for students to actively engage in the written ideas of others by carefully reading, researching, reflecting, and responding to the contributions of their peers and course faculty. TDs foster the development of members into a community of learners as they share ideas and inquiries, consider perspectives that may be different from their own, and integrate knowledge from other disciplines.
