| Background: Simulation has been developed as one of the creative instructional techniques in healthcare educational programs. Through simulation students can apply theoretical knowledge to solve problems in a variety of clinical-like scenarios, learn how to manage rare and high-risk nursing scenarios, and enhances the overall satisfaction of nursing students that help them to attain higher results. Aim: To assess the satisfaction of community health nursing students and their educators with the home care simulation teaching module at the Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University. Settings: The study was conducted at the community health nursing department, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University. Subject: All bachelor students who completed the two-week home care simulation module in community health nursing course during the academic year 2022–2023 (449 students) and all clinical educators in the community health nursing department at the Faculty of Nursing (25 clinical educators). Tools: Three tools were used. Tool (I): Student's Socio-demographic and Academic data questionnaire, tool (II): The satisfaction with simulation experience scale (SSES), and tool III: Educator’s satisfaction with simulation experience scale. Results: More than half (59.2%) of students had a moderate satisfaction with simulation experiences. A statistically significant association was noticed between the students' age and their level of satisfaction with the simulation experience (X 2=13.932, P=0.030). On the other hand, two fifths (40.0%) of the educators were highly satisfied with the overall experience of simulation and a minority (4.0%) of them were dissatisfied. Conclusion: The current study revealed that more than half of students had a moderate satisfaction with simulation experiences. While, the majority of educators had a high satisfaction level with simulation experience. Recommendations: Integration of simulation into all clinical modules and developing comprehensive training programs for nursing educators in different specialties to learn effectively how to design, practice, debrief simulation-based experiences for meeting the intended learning outcomes of the nursing syllabus, and fostering a positive relationship between learners and instructors to keep students engaged. | ||
