A blended approach to practice simulation in undergraduate nursing

This article looks at using a blended approach to deliver an alternative to clinical placement for pre-registration nursing students, enabling a diverse learning experience over a six-week period, while retaining a focus on clinical practice. This evaluative study demonstrates how the use of innovative technologies, such as high-fidelity simulation and virtual reality software, together with a more traditional approach to learning, can deliver a valuable learning experience in the absence of a clinical placement.
