What’s the best way to teach patient safety

I’ve been diving into different methods for effectively teaching patient safety, and I’m curious about what works for others. Recently, I came across a study suggesting that simulation-based learning improves retention in nursing students. Has anyone found particular techniques or tools that resonate well in the classroom for this topic?

One technique that’s worked well for me is using role-play scenarios with realistic patient safety challenges. It seems to really help students internalize concepts when they actively engage in the situations they’ll encounter. Have you tried integrating any role-play into your sessions?

I totally get what you’re saying about simulation-based learning; it can really enhance retention. However, I’ve found that incorporating short quizzes after those sessions keeps the information fresh in their minds too. What do you think about blending those approaches? @t_chen88.
