An interactive, personalized simulation experience Develop clinical reasoning skills, competence, and confidence in nursing students through vSim for Nursing, co-developedby Laerdal Medical and Wolters Kluwer. Designed to simulate real nursing scenarios, vSim allows students to interact withpatients in a safe, realistic environment, available anytime,anywhere.

Curriculum integration Online, interactive virtual simulations with integrated curriculum resources provide a full simulation learning experience for every student. Students have access to suggested reading material from trusted Wolters Kluwer sources, pre-simulation and post-simulation quizzes, documentation assignments that can be used in Lippincott DocuCare, and guided reflection questions to gauge student understanding of a scenario and support improved competence through remediation.

Patient-centered care Nursing students develop clinical reasoning skills by prioritizing and implementing actions within several dimensions, including:

Safety Measures – Practice safe procedures Communication – Interact with the patient through

questions that result in text and audio responses Assessments – Conduct specific physical assessments Interventions – Take action with the patient to improve

their health status Drugs & IV Management – Administer medications

according to provider orders Tests & Diagnostics – Perform lab or diagnostic tests to

support clinical decisions

Measure student success Create classes and monitor student results by viewing pre-simulation and post-simulation quiz data and student feedback logs.

One of our commitments is to help ensure that nurses

graduate with the strong critical thinking skills and

rapid decision-making abilities that health care providers

seek in direct care nurses. Therefore, in addition to

helping students pass the NCLEX, Lippincott PassPoint

also prepares students to succeed in practice settings

through exposure to real-world competencies and

procedures. Within Lippincott PassPoint, SmartSense

links take students directly to content from both

Lippincott Procedures, which includes step-by-step

instructions for clinical skills competencies, and

Lippincott Advisor, which provides specific clinical

answers synthesized into entries on diseases and

conditions, signs and symptoms, diagnostic tests,

treatments, and hospital-acquired conditions.

By linking NCLEX-style questions and rationales

directly to evidence-based clinical information found

in Lippincott Procedures and Advisor products,

Lippincott PassPoint helps students learn how to

critically think through situations using evidence-based

content that is already being used by thousands of

practicing nurses nationwide. This connection engages

the students, enabling them to make the best possible

choices for both passing the NCLEX and providing

safe and effective patient care.

Content connecting education to practice is available

through SmartSense links em bedded in Lippincott

PassPoint, creating a built-in remediation plan that

provides corrective information at the moment when

a student does not understand a concept, technique,

or procedure. Whenever a SmartSense link appears, a

deeper connection that supports both comprehension

and application is available for the student.

Prepare your students to make the transition from the classroom to practice.

Point-of-care, evidence-based content helps students prepare for practice.
