Beyond the Storm: Reshaping Resilience & Recovery

Join us at the NLN Education Summit in Washington, DC, as we move Beyond the Storm: Reshaping Resilience & Recovery together. Discover innovative simulation solutions, connect with fellow nurse educators, and gain practical strategies to build resilience and prepare the next generation of nurses.

A quality improvement initiative: Harnessing SimCapture analytics and CCEI© 2.0 to advance competency-based nursing education 


September 24 | 2:00 pm

Guest speakers from Creighton University:

  • Sarah Ball, Ph.D., RN
  • Julie Manz, Ph.D., RN, CNE, FAAN
  • Lucas Manning, EdD, RN
  • Chelsea Hamzhie, DNP
  • Beth Flott, Ed.D, RN

Objectives:

  • Explain the integration of the Creighton Competency Evaluation Instrument© (CCEI) 2.0 into SimCapture for consistent competency-based assessment
  • Demonstrate how performance dashboards increase data transparency, enhancing faculty interpretation of learner outcomes.
  • Examine simulation-based analytics with didactic theory analytics to enhance curricular alignment and drive targeted, competency-based improvements in undergraduate nursing education.

 

Junior by name. Mighty in impact.

Stop by the Laerdal booth for an exclusive reveal at the NLN Summit.

 

Introducing our new SimJunior®

Prepare learners for real-world pediatric care with SimJunior, a modern pediatric simulator that enables consistent, competency-based learning experiences. Designed with clinical realism, ease-of-use, and reliable performance, SimJunior helps educators deliver consistent and standardized training that prepares learners for real-world pediatric care.

As the foundation of a complete pediatric training solution, SimJunior integrates with the broader Laerdal ecosystem of products and services. Together, they help programs scale simulation, reduce faculty burden, and deliver consistent learning experiences, helping healthcare professionals build the confidence and competence needed to care for pediatric patients.

SimCapture

SimCapture provides the tools to streamline simulation management, enhancing training efficiency and maximizing learning outcomes. With the ability to capture audio, video, patient monitor data, annotations, and simulator performance metrics in a single, web-based interface, this solution allows for seamless integration both on-site and remotely. By centralizing simulation activities, SimCapture simplifies assessment and debriefing, helping instructors deliver targeted feedback and ensuring consistent, high-quality training experiences that drive improved clinical performance.

Nursing Anne Simulator with Mixed Reality

Support the development of essential nursing skills with the Nursing Anne Simulator, designed to empower learners to gain hands-on experience in a safe, controlled environment. This versatile simulator covers a wide range of clinical competencies, from routine assessments to advanced procedures like airway management and wound care. With interchangeable parts and customizable scenarios, Nursing Anne can simulate a variety of patient conditions with just one simulator, offering the ability to train on many different patient profiles. This all-in-one solution builds confidence, sharpens clinical decision-making, and enhances overall nursing education, preparing learners for real-world challenges.

Resuscitation Quality Improvement®(RQI®) for Nursing

Today's nursing students need more than CPR certification. They need the confidence and competence to respond when every second counts. The Resuscitation Quality Improvement® (RQI®) program helps learners develop, maintain, and demonstrate high-quality CPR skills through flexible, self-directed practice and real-time feedback. Designed for nursing education, the RQI program portfolio of BLS, ALS, and PALS Provider delivers verified competence through quarterly cognitive and skills simulation sessions. Now available with Resusci Anne® manikins in multiple skin tones, RQI supports more representative, realistic learning experiences while helping prepare future nurses to deliver high-quality care when it matters most.

vrClinicals for Nursing

When students need repeated opportunities to think critically and manage competing patient demands, vrClinicals places them in realistic, multi‑patient care environments where they can practice prioritization, delegation, communication, and clinical judgment, with detailed feedback that builds confidence and readiness for real‑world nursing practice

Emily and Emma

Emily and Emma are the most realistic full-term newborn simulators designed to train neonatal scenarios. Adverse events in neonatal settings can have devastating and irreversible lifetime impacts on families. Hence, prioritizing newborn simulation is pivotal to ensure high-quality, safe, and robust systems to improve patient safety and health outcomes. Engineered using the design concepts of realistic anatomy and lifelike airways, Emily and Emma are powered by sophisticated engineering and a user-friendly operating system to provide an enhanced training experience.
