Further, this experience allowed me to recognize the benefits of simulation learning for nursing staff. Innovative educational methods, such as simulation, are necessary to meet the ever-increasing and changing demands of nursing. The IOM released a report in 2010 with one of the goals being for nurses to achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system (The National Academy of Sciences [NAS], 2011). Not only does this mean that nurses should have opportunities to advance their degrees seamlessly, but also this means that nurses should have learning opportunities and education throughout their careers. Additionally, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has funded the QSEN to address the challenges of preparing future nurses with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to improve quality and safety in the healthcare systems (QSEN, 2018). The goals established are patient-centered care, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, safety, and informatics (QSEN,
