|Karen M. Daley, PhD, RN graduated fromVillanova University with her BSN, from Troy State University with aMS in Nursing, and a PhD in Nursing from Rutgers, the State University of NewJersey. Presently, she is Associate Professor and Graduate Nursing Coordinator for the Department of Nursing atWestern Connecticut State University. Her academic interests currently involve assessment of outcomes in nursing programs through standardized testing, fostering collegiality and caring between faculty and students, and integrating simulation in nursing education. AtWestern Connecticut State University, Karen has spearheaded the implementation of human patient simulation throughout the curriculum and is primarily responsible for the acquisition of SimMan technology, the expansion and development of the Nursing Labs and the Nursing Resource Center, and the upgrade of resources for the Nursing Labs.As the chair of the Learning Resources Committee, Karenwas able to acquire additional lab space for an additional SimMan Lab, an Assessment Lab, a technology classroom, and a Ped/OB area.AnewICU lab opened in the fall of 2008 funded by a federal nursing initiative. Karen continues towork to upgrade and integrate simulation into the nursing curriculum, train faculty in simulation-focused learning experiences in their classes, and encourage the use of simulation

This second edition of an acclaimed book for nurse educators provides a practical, step-by-step guide to designing and developing simulation scenarios and integrating them into the nursing curriculum. Based on extensive discussion with contributing authors and new faculty, the text has been updated to include changes in simulation pedagogy since the first edition was published in 2008, and thoroughly reorganized to facilitate greater ease-of-use. Outstanding features include scenarios easily adaptable to the instructor?s own lab, and a new section on graduate nursing education and interdisciplinary clinical scenarios. Scenarios are ordered according to their complexity for ease of access.

The authors provide concrete information about the use of simulation in a variety of programs, courses, and schools, and describe how nursing faculty have mastered the challenge of integrating simulation into their curricula, from fundamental nursing arenas to more complex levels of care. Chapters discuss how simulation can be used with such diverse populations as medical-surgical, geriatric, pediatric, trauma, obstetric, and home care. The book offers scenario-running instructions, as well as recommendations on developing faculty, integrating point-of-care decision-making tools and necessary equipment, how to set up a lab (including static to high-fidelity manikins), and much more. Scenarios explore key themes in nursing, from ethics, spirituality and palliative care, to communication and cultural diversity. A template for creating scenarios spans the text and includes student preparation materials, forms, and checklists.

This updated edition includes:

• Scenarios easily adaptable to an instructor?s own lab
• A new section on graduate nursing education and interdisciplinary clinical scenarios
• New interdisciplinary, interprofessional, and community-based scenarios
• Expansive chapter templates
• Focus on cultural sensitivity, health literacy, and research methods
• Information on certification issues and integrating e-records in simulation
