Abstract
Abstract
The rising cost of simulated electronic health record (EHR) software for students in a baccalaureate nursing program was risking student success. The need for faculty to decrease this financial burden on students was apparent. Simulation faculty created a free and cloud-based simulated EHR. High-fidelity features of the simulated EHR include barcode scanning capabilities and real-time diagnostic results. Students report that the simulated EHR is easy to navigate and they are particularly satisfied with the free cost. The EHR template, which can be customized for each simulated patient, and is now being used inside the classroom as an active learning strategy.
