Abstract
Although home-visit healthcare programs in Korea are expected to expand, providing hands-on experience to nursing students may be limited. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a problem-based learning (PBL) simulation module that reflects home-visit healthcare services provided by public health centers for pre-frail older adults. The simulation module, including PBL as prebriefing, was developed by the researchers and revised based on expert reviews. The module was evaluated using a mixed-method embedded one-group post-test-only design with focus group interviews (FGIs). Quantitative data (n=29) were collected between April and June, 2021. FGIs (n=10) were conducted twice in June 2021, and qualitative data were analyzed using an inductive content analysis approach. The average score of the Simulation Design Scale was 4.67±0.36. The overall mean score of the Educational Practices Questionnaire was 4.75±0.37. Three themes emerged from the FGIs: immersive learning experience, changes in perspective on nursing, and enhanced nursing competency. This PBL-based simulation module was evaluated as a systematic learning process in which nursing students could become self-directed learners, interacting and collaborating with colleagues, instructors, and environments. The module encourages them to practice home visit services.
