Synopsis:
Virtual Clinical Excursions (Phase 2) is a workbook/CD-ROM package that guides the student through a multi-floor virtual hospital in a hands-on learning experience. The student is actively engaged with the workbook, CD-ROM and parent text throughout each lesson. Each lesson has a core textbook reading assignment and activities based on "visiting" the patients in the hospital. The lessons in the workbook complement the content in the textbook and provide a perfect environment in which students may "practice" what they are learning in the text. The multi-floor virtual hospital also has built-in testing of clinical knowledge with NCLEX type questions. As the student "visits" each patient, they are able to access realistic information resources essential for patient care. Information resources include: charts, medical administration records, electronic patient records, video streaming of patient dialogue with nurses and other related materials. These resources provide an opportunity for the student to assess and analyze information, make a diagnosis, set priorities and implement and evaluate care. Produced in conjunction with the Virtual Clinical Excursions CD-ROM authors: Jay Shiro Tashiro, PhD, RN, Director of Systems Design, Wolfsong Informatics, Tucson, Arizona; Ellen Sullins, PhD, Director of Research, Wolfsong Informatics, Tucson, Arizona; Gina Long, RN, DNSc, Assistant Professor, Department of Nursing, College of Health Professions, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona Virtual Clinical Excursions is a hybrid CD so it runs on both Macintosh and Windows platforms.
