Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a tailored simulation learning (SL) program and to evaluate
the effects of the program on the clinical competency, clinical decision-making competency, and communicative
competency of new nursing staffs in intensive care units (ICU) and emergency rooms (ER).
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, fifteen nurses were assigned to the experimental group and fifteen to the control group. The experimental group was given the SL program of four sessions, whereas the lectures of four sessions were given to the control group. Data were analyzed using a x2-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Kruskal-Wallis test with
an SPSS program. Analysis of covariance was used to treat the covariate of pre communicative competency
between the experimental and control groups.
Results: Based on the education needs of new nursing staffs in ICUs and ERs, three learning scenarios and one evaluating scenario were developed for the SL program. The score for clinical competency, clinical decision-making competency, and communicative competency were significantly higher in the experimental group compared with the control group.
Conclusion: The SL program is an effective learning strategy for new nursing staffs in ICUs and ERs. These findings suggest that an SL program be offered as an alternative for new nurse orientation and continuing nurse education.
