Abstract
Aim: This study aims to determine the effect of simulation education on nursing students’ perception and fear of the COVID-19 disease. Method: This study was conducted in a randomized controlled trials with 86 nursing students from a university between November 10 and December 10, 2021. Data were collected using a personal information form and the Approach to COVID-19 Patient Form, which were designed by the researchers, the COVID-19 Disease Perception Scale, and the Fear of COVID-19 Scale. Results: While the COVID-19 Fear Scale mean score of the intervention and control groups was high before the training, it decreased after the training. After the training of the intervention and control group, the mean score of the COVID-19 Disease Perception Scale increased. It was found that the simulation education given to the intervention group increased the level of correct implementation of the interventions related to approaching patients after the education. Conclusion: It was found that the simulation education given to students provided positive improvements in the approach to patients with COVID-19 and disease perception and fear levels.
