Abstract
Covid-19 has presented global challenges to all aspects of healthcare,
including nurse education. This article describes an innovative approach at Birmingham
City University to ensure student nurses continue to have simulated learning
experiences. A planned patient simulation event for 500 students was redesigned to
be delivered in groups of 10 via Microsoft Teams. There was a particular focus on
developing the students’ growth mindset, with an emphasis learning from challenges
and recognising what could have been done differently. The evaluation showed that
the simulation was beneficial to students and had increased their confidence.
