Study to Evaluate the Use of the SBAR (Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation) Checklist as a Means to Help Undergraduate Nursing Students Understand Team Member Roles and Improve Healthcare Team Communication
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Education on SBAR worksheet for Communication. Completed, enrolled 93 participants.
Detailed Summary
Based on investigator's hypothesis, that incorporating the SBAR worksheet into the training of undergraduate Nursing students will increase their capacity to work in an interdisciplinary team, the investigators will assess whether introducing the SBAR improves the students' knowledge of their own role and that of others on the team (medical students), strengthens communication between team members, and enhances the quality of the patient assessment and interventions demonstrated by the nursing students caring for a critical patient (represented by a high-fidelity mannequin, a Human Patient Simulator).
