Welcome to SimAdviser!

SimAdviser makes classroom simulations easy and effective. Supporting students before, during, and after the classroom simulation — SimAdviser gives students real world experience and seamlessly integrates simulation into your course — all from one simple website.

Designed to work with Laerdal simulations, SimAdviser streamlines the connection between classroom content and clinical simulation — helping simplify the process for faculty and also helping students learn more from clinical simulations.

Easy to Integrate

Integrating SimAdviser into your course is simple, and because the course modules in SimAdviser are aligned with the market leading texts of Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, information learned in class is also available online!

Scenario Modules

Scenario Modules Provide Selected Content To Help Students
Before, During, and After Simulations!

SimAdviser organizes simulation support content in "Scenario Modules" that help students locate content efficiently and also help faculty assign study resources quickly. To see a list of the Scenarios, click here.

The included twenty scenario modules are mapped to match up with Laerdal's NLN VitalSim Scenarios Volume 1, providing selected, market leading content that is organized around Laerdal's simulations — helping make for a more effective integration of simulation and classroom content.

In each module, simulation specific content is all in one place and simple to find.

Students will have access to:

Information systems used by nurses for reference on how to treat patients in hospitals nationwide
Videos and image resources for quick reference.
Selected content from market the leading medical surgical textbooks.

Real World Systems

Help students prepare for their careers, by providing simulation review materials from systems used in hospitals!

By being based upon information systems used in real hospitals, SimAdviser helps students prepare for their careers, by allowing them to practice in a real world setting.

The integrated systems in SimAdviser are used across the country in hospitals by nurses every day, and are updated with new information frequently. Included in SimAdviser is:

Selected content available from Lippincott's Nursing Advisor (LNA)

Using a core nursing monograph approach, content is supported by evidence-based references
Students can access a database of information pertaining to:
- Drugs
- Treatment
- Care plans
- Diseases
- Patient Teaching
- "Atlas of Pathophysiology" Images
- Diagnostic Tests
- Signs & Symptoms

Selected content available from Lippincott's Nursing Procedures and Skills (LNPS)

Access a customized database of evidence-based procedures and skills online, providing detailed instruction
Quick lists offer a high-level overview for easy reference and preparation

Among this real world content, students can refer to videos, animations, pictures, and charts!

To learn more about LNA and LNPS, please contact your local representative or preview our 'sample module'!

Integrated Text Content

Content from Brunner and Suddarth's "Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing" 12/e is easy to access and integrated into each scenario module!

Within each study module of SimAdviser is scenario specific content from market Lippincott Williams and Wilkins Medical Surgical Nursing textbooks, helping students spend less time searching for information and more time studying.

Selected simulation specific content from the text is integrated directly into the system:

Text pages are available all in one place — within the context of the scenario module
Easy to access materials are pre-selected to guide students to proper materials

SimAdviser's integrated text content helps make it easier to integrate simulations into lectures and demonstrate how clinical simulations tie into classroom concepts.

Laerdal Simulations

SimAdviser's content is aligned with Laerdal simulations — Clinical Simulation Sessions Have Never Been Easier!

SimAdviser scenario topics have been selected to match up content with Laerdal's NLN VitalSim Scenarios Volume 1, making classroom integration even simpler.

SimAdviser has made it possible for market leading nursing content to be aligned with professional simulations, helping students gain more from classroom simulations.

For more information on Laerdal Simulations, please visit Laerdal's Website.

*SimAdviser is designed to align student support content with Laerdal simulations, but will work with other simulators, as SimAdviser does not communicate directly to the simulator.
