Resumen

The nursing profession is currently focusing on improvements in patient-provider relationships and is utilizing simulation as an approach to increase competency and empathy of healthcare providers as they develop preemptive skills. In nursing, simulation training utilizes technology that mimics human body parts or model body systems to provide nursing students a simulated real world setting in a safe practicing environment. At Hostos Community College, a faculty member in the licensed practical nursing program (LPN) integrated constructs of critical pedagogy theory with simulation training for LPN students. This article discusses the results of preliminary data from a survey assessing the LPN students’ level of confidence in learning the three domains of nursing skills (cognitive, affective and psychomotor) and highlights the importance of future research to analyze the impact of simulation training specific to nursing practice and care. The article also underscores the utility of critical pedagogy in simulation training for nursing students as an effective tool to educate health care providers about the social and structural barriers impacting patient health outcomes.
