Groups participated in an unfolding case study simulation involving a mock code with a focus on the omission of time-sensitive PD medication. Pre- and postsimulation test results were compared.RESULTS: Findings indicated an increased understanding among three of the four groups relating to medication timing during care transitions.All authors: Becker M, Bernhardt PW, Ellis DM, Felgoise SH, Hickey S, Kim L, Markey D, McLaughlin C, O'Connor M, Prieto P, Puleo M, Reddy TOriginally published: Nursing Education Perspectives. 2021 Dec 21Fiscal year: FY2022Digital Object Identifier: Date added to catalog: 2022-02-21
