Abstract

An educational escape room (EER) was developed as an innovative strategy for summative evaluation at the end of the first semester in a medical/surgical course within an accelerated nursing program. Learning outcomes were focused on recognizing abnormal vital signs of a decompensating patient, prioritizing nursing interventions, role-playing as a rapid response nurse, collaborating with peers to complete each puzzle, interpreting findings, and discovering medication errors. Debriefing allowed faculty to provide feedback on the achievement of the learning outcomes. Most students agreed that the EER allowed them to meet each learning outcome. This project supported the usefulness of EERs for the evaluation of student learning outcomes in a fast-paced program that may be similar to the speed at which associate degree programs prepare students.
