The Effectiveness of Virtual Game Simulation Method Designed for Patient Safety in Nursing Students
With the development of technology, virtual game simulation is starting to take an important place in nursing education, which has spread to the virtual world. There are studies conducted with this application, but there are no virtual game simulation studies related to patient safety. The planned study aims to measure nursing students' tendencies and attitudes towards medical errors, satisfaction and self-confidence in nursing practices with a virtual game simulation related to patient safety developed by the researcher.
Simulation, also defined as activities that imitate clinical practices and simulation, are applications that provide competency-based clinical experience in a realistic environment that does not carry the risk of the real situation and is of great importance in terms of patient safety. Virtual game simulation, which includes technology and is one of the simulation applications, is a two-dimensional virtual computer game that includes simulated real people and allows students to actively participate in a clinical scenario. While the use of virtual game simulation in nursing education increases students' critical thinking, decision-making and problem-solving skills, it also provides learning by making mistakes and correcting mistakes by increasing individual development. The use of virtual game simulation in nursing education is necessary and important in ensuring and protecting patient safety. Virtual games, whose main purpose is to learn, have the potential to increase student participation, role-play difficult situations, try new reactions or work on creative solutions.
