Abstract

Caring and empathy may be taught to nursing students through a simulation experience of patient role playing. Students are asked to put themselves in a patient’s shoes to experience how that patient may feel when given a new diagnosis that may change their lifestyle or quality of life. After a simulation experience of wearing an ostomy bag or adult diaper, the students were able to better understand the importance of caring and empathy in nursing.
