Stillbirth Simulation for Nursing and Midwifery

Collaboration is necessary to design and execute a nursing simulation that meets undergraduate and graduate competency expectations for communication, effective relationships, and stillbirth care. This simulation plan aligns with the ten international healthcare simulation standards published by the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL). Course faculty work with simulation faculty, staff, and volunteer actors to plan and implement a consistent experience for pre-licensure and or graduate nursing students to develop critical clinical skills and attitudes across spheres of care while caring for parents experiencing pregnancy loss.
