The Board of Registered Nursing \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2020/new-california-nursing-waiver-will-allow-some-students-to-complete-training-but-leaves-others-out/628170\">relaxed its regulations\u003c/a> in April 2020 to allow students to fulfill half of their clinical hours in simulated scenarios, but said it will reverse that decision when the pandemic is over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Abille, that means that instead of checking her patients’ vital signs with her stethoscope and thermometer, she now relies on the electronic health records shown at the bottom of her laptop screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caring for faux-patient Jones, she said, is a stark contrast to the close relationships she developed with patients when working as a certified nursing assistant at a skilled nursing facility. There, she had emotional conversations with elderly patients on the geriatrics floor, many of whom were reflecting on the choices they’d made in life as they neared its end.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Abille wasn’t able to do that with Jones. “I couldn’t pry into her personal life, I couldn’t pry into her worries, I couldn’t pry even into her pain,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before the pandemic, Abille would have received one-on-one mentorship from a senior nurse on how to do sensitive procedures, such as inserting a catheter into a patient’s urethra. Now, with her college’s skills lab closed and even mannequins unavailable, she practices at home. A unicorn Pillow Pet stands in as her patient and she uses a water bottle to replicate the urethra.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Abille said she worries that she might accidentally reinforce mistakes because she doesn’t have her instructor to immediately correct her. Having a catheter inserted is a scary procedure for many patients, who often wonder whether the procedure will hurt. That’s not a conversation she can have with her unicorn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In person, nursing students can use all of their senses when caring for patients, but with simulations, they miss out on the physical cues that patients give to signify pain or discomfort, said Melby of the BRN.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I worked in the ICU, I could smell various things like a gastrointestinal bleed,” she said.

Colleges need to find space for labs, attract faculty away from other well-paying jobs and compete with other schools for limited clinical placements, Attar said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, the last year on the front lines of COVID-19 has led many older nurses to retire early and younger nurses to quit. Spetz said hospital leaders are concerned that senior nurses currently in the workforce will burn out before new graduates can be hired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hospitals are losing nurses close to retirement a few years early ... but we knew that they were going to retire,” Spetz said. “But if we end up losing a bunch of nurses who are in their 30s, those are nurses who had another 20 or 30 years of working life available for us and that’s a much bigger loss for the workforce.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The situation is more acute in high-demand areas such as the emergency room and intensive care unit, Spetz said. Those departments have been off-limits to nursing students during the pandemic — and that’s experience that can’t be replicated in a virtual scenario.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>'You Cannot Simulate the Fear and Dread of Some People'\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Even with clinical experience, the transition from being a nursing student to being a nurse working in a hospital can be jarring, said Gerard Brogan, the director of nursing practice at the California Nurses Association, a labor union that represents registered nurses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label ='Related Coverage' tag='nurses']“Lack of access to these specialty units, and this more generic simulation-based education, is not going to prepare these nurses on their own for a major shock,” Brogan said. He likened it to soldiers learning warfare on simulators, which has been linked to significant increases in post-traumatic stress disorder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Union members are also concerned that colleges will rely heavily on virtual simulations even after the pandemic because software is cheaper than staff, Brogan said. Instruction that doesn’t prepare students to connect with patients on a human level, he said, threatens to compromise safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You cannot simulate the fear and dread of some people,” Brogan said. “And frankly, we’re worried about the attempt to do so.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the availability of clinical placements has recently begun to increase in California as \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/03/california-milestone-reopening-today/\">more vaccines are distributed\u003c/a> and coronavirus cases decline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Waxman, of the nonprofit California Simulation Alliance, agreed that the state is likely to see an expanded use of technology in nurse training post-pandemic, including a wider adoption of virtual reality that will replace some clinical experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though cost has limited the use of virtual reality in nursing programs — each headset costs around $300, not including the price of the software — it overcomes some of the shortcomings of the 2D virtual simulations that colleges currently use, Waxman said, because it is immersive and students can use their sense of touch when practicing physical assessments and hands-on skills such as immunization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once the pandemic is over, I believe that students will need to get back into the hands-on skills lab. I don’t think that will go away,” Waxman said. “But education is going to change dramatically.”\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/author/shehreen-karim/\">Shehreen Karim\u003c/a> is a fellow with the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/projects/college-journalism-network/\">CalMatters College Journalism Network\u003c/a>, a collaboration between CalMatters and student journalists from across California. \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/author/charlotte-west/\">Charlotte West\u003c/a> contributed reporting.
