Summary

This trial will study how using High-Fidelity Patient Simulation (HFPS) affects the clinical reasoning skills and teamwork abilities of Physical Therapy and Nursing students. The study will compare students who receive different amounts of

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Physical Therapy and Nursing students who are healthy. The study aims to see if practicing with high-tech patient simulators can improve their clinical reasoning and teamwork skills. Students will be randomly placed into groups, some of which will experience no simulations, while others will have one or two simulation sessions.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the impact of High-Fidelity Patient Simulation (HFPS) on developing clinical reasoning and interprofessional competencies in students. It compares the performance of those who undergo zero, one, or two simulation experiences against each other.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves educational simulations rather than medical treatments, there are no direct physical side effects expected from participating in the HFPS activities.
