鈥淭his recognition from INACSL reflects the deep dedication we have to nursing education and the science that supports it. Our evidence-based simulation environment has been carefully designed for our nurses and advanced practice nurses to be the best for patients and communities,鈥� says Donna S. Havens, PhD, RN, FAAN, Connelly Endowed Dean and Professor. 鈥淚鈥檓 grateful to Dr. Furman, the SLRC team, Dr. Mariani and our faculty for their leadership, as well as all those who support us in this mission.鈥�

INACSL鈥檚 Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice 鈩� are designed to advance the science of simulation, share best practices, and provide evidence-based guidelines for the practice and development of a comprehensive standard of practice. Endorsement recognizes FCN鈥檚 adherence to the Core Four Healthcare Simulation Standards. These include Prebriefing: Preparation & Briefing, Facilitation, Debriefing, and Professional Integrity.

Using patient care scenarios in the SLRC, faculty model and facilitate the development of undergraduate and graduate students' skills of inquiry, clinical judgment and decision-making. Choosing appropriate assessment techniques and nursing interventions based on patient context, students manage the holistic care of patients, families and communities.

Dr. Furman notes, 鈥淚 appreciate the effort by the SLRC team to adhere to INACSL鈥檚 best practices. We are fortunate to work with some of the contributors to these standards and with highly respected teachers and researchers in the field of simulation methodology.鈥�
