Abstract
Graduate nursing programs must provide end-of-life (EOL) content to prepare nurse practitioners to manage the holistic needs of patients. This project aimed to measure the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium curriculum's impact on student self-confidence and anxiety levels. A pretest/posttest study design was implemented using an EOL simulation and the Nursing Anxiety and Self-Confidence With Clinical Decision-Making Scale (NASC-CDM©) to compare baseline self-confidence and anxiety levels related to clinical decision-making. Results showed that the simulation increased student self-confidence, but anxiety level remained unchanged. Nurse educators should consider incorporating EOL simulation into graduate curricula to improve student confidence with clinical decision-making.
