Abstract

This quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest study aimed to examine the effectiveness of hybrid simulation-based health assessment practice on knowledge and satisfaction among nursing students. The participants were 62 second-year nursing students from the Faculty of Nursing, Udon Thani Rajabhat University, who voluntarily participated in the study. The research instruments consisted of two part including 1)The intervention instrument consisted of hybrid simulation scenarios for health assessment practice, which integrated simulated patients with part-task trainers. These scenarios were developed by the researchers, validated for content, and revised according to expert suggestions prior to implementation. and 2) data collection instruments, including a knowledge test on health assessment (S-CVI = 1.00, KR-20 = .729) and a satisfaction questionnaire regarding the hybrid simulation activity (S-CVI = .99, Cronbach’s alpha = .939). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests.

The results revealed that posttest knowledge scores were significantly higher than pretest scores at the .05 level (p < .001). Overall satisfaction after the practice was at the highest level ( = 4.66, SD = 0.63). The highest mean scores were found in the domains of learning facilitation ( = 4.75, SD = 0.54) and benefits and applicability ( = 4.75, SD = 0.56). In conclusion, hybrid simulation-based health assessment practice effectively enhanced nursing students’ knowledge and resulted in a high level of satisfaction. It is recommended for integration into relevant nursing practicum courses.
