The nursing simulation lab (LBS) is an educational space that recreates real situations of nursing care. It is a tool that enhances learning the different techniques that all students must acquire nursing before contact with the patient and specifically with the activity of the nurse / a in the hospital area. The simulation lab is a space that represents the activity own nursing care, in where the student can develop their abilities to "know how to be", "know how" and "poise" in a health context (especially hospitals) .

From the first course, the nursing student clinical competencies learned in the lab, in an environment free of multiple stressors present in the hospital world. Then, you must put these skills into practice directly with people. This practice should be used to apply knowledge, skills and attitudes in a holistic care to people.

During the first course students should acquire basic skills for basic care of people and protect against known threats from hostile environments.

To enhance learning in the nursing simulation lab (LBS), students should meet the following requirements:
• Attendance at all classes of the LBS
• Willingness to learn
• Read the notes prior to the LBS
• Motivation to perform the procedures
• Training to acquire the ability autonomous minimum necessary to go to clinical practice
• Using the white coat in LBS
• Clothing appropriate in the LBS (comfortable clothing, cleanliness, no heeled shoe, no nail polish and short hair pulled back and no jewelry)

1. Act taking into account the ethical aspects inherent in caring for the person in the basic care procedures
2. Show skill in performing basic care procedures
3. Perform basic care procedure autonomously applying basic criteria for such program
4. Learn to relate the information it has on the patient and primary care procedures that you will be using
5. Use the resources with sustainability criteria in the basic procedure to be performed (quantity, selective rejection and recycling if applicable)

• 11. E - Establish effective communication with patients, families, social groups and partners and promote health education.
• 13. G - Know the principles of health-care funding and use resources appropriately.
• 19. B - Ability to make decisions based on critical thinking and reflective practice.
• 1. G - Ability to provide technical and professional health care appropriate to the health needs of the people they treat, with full technical and scientific autonomy, according to current and available scientific knowledge and to the quality standards and safety requirements set forth in the applicable legal standards and code of ethics.
• 22. G - Use and management of information and research
• 23. B - Ability to analyze and synthesize.
• 24. G - Ability to work autonomously.
• 25. E - Knowledge of the field of study
• 3. E - Know and apply the theoretical and methodological foundations and principals of nursing.
• 7. B - Understand people without prejudice, considering their physical, psychological and social aspects, as autonomous and independent individuals, ensuring respect for their opinions, beliefs and values, ensuring their right to privacy through confidentiality and professional secrecy.

• Students will be able to initiate an appropriate health care to basic health needs
• Students will be able to value all people equally, without bias and considering its physical
• Students will be able to start effective communication through simulation in the nursing lab
• Students will be able to initiate a decision-making through critical thinking and reflective practice
• Students will be able to perform basic nursing procedures independently

The methodology followed inthenursingsimulation laboratories(LBS) is a teaching-learning based on reflective thinking, practice and participation.To do this, groups of LBSare plannedinmore than 10or 11people per group.The sequenceof teachingis organizedaccording to the followingstructure:

• Introduction of item
• Exploringprior knowledge
• Presentation anddiscussion of the case
• Theoretical contribution- practice
• Guided practice
• Independent practice
• Reflection onpractice

Classesare heldaccording to the followingactivities:
• Discussion
•Oral
• Analysis ofcases
• Work onvideo orDV
• Modelingmetacognitive
•Roll-Playing
• Troubleshooting
•ClinicalRecords
The classesalways havea duration of1 hourand 50min.

Items toassessthe percentageof the totalof the final grade:
•Practical examam the end ofthe entiresyllabus(70%): Different issues ariseroyalhospitalfor the student tosolveindividually
The final exammust be approvedin order tomake halfwith the restof the items
• Observationsof the teacher duringclassroomwork and Nursing recordsorexercisescontextualizationof procedurestaught inclass (30%)
• Attendance atLBSclasses: 1 pointis subtractedfor each day offailure to attendclasses (the 3rd day of absenceandrest).

Attendance attheLBSis compulsory andthe studentmust have attendedat least 88% of classes.
Eachstudent mustattend classesin the grouphasbeenassigned andno changes are allowedgroups.There will be nopossibility of recoveringthelostclass. Only if there isgood causethe student mustcontactthe teacherto reportthe situation andlook for alternatives.
Ascausewill only be accepted: studenthospitalizationor death ofa firstdegree.

The second call will save the intermediate test note and recover only 70% of the final test with a maximum score of 5. Should have suspended the intermediate test, can only be retrieved using the final test and full marks to qualify will be 5.

- Before registration in the course again should be looked compatibility with others subjects

- For the 3rd and 4th, will apply the same criteria as for the 1st and 2nd.

- No fees of Honor awarded for 2nd call
