This episode of the NLN Nursing EDge Unscripted features guests Shannon Daly, Sterling Roberts, and Lawanda Greene. The guests explore the impact of end-of-life (EOL) simulation on nursing students' anxiety and self-confidence. The discussion centers on their research, which implemented an EOL simulation using the ELNEC (End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium) curriculum. The study revealed the importance of early and ongoing EOL training, highlighting that even seasoned nurses often experience anxiety and discomfort in these situations. The authors emphasized simulation as a safe, effective tool for building communication skills and empathy in nursing students. They also stressed incorporating spirituality, diversity, and interdisciplinary collaboration into EOL education, starting at the undergraduate level, to prepare future nurses for these critical conversations. Learn more about their work, “Implementation and Evaluation of an End-of-Life Standardized Participant Simulation in an Adult/Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner Program.”
