Virtual Simulations for Mental and Behavioral Health Nurse Education

Identify Symptoms and Determine Treatment to Put Patients on the Path to Well-Being

Our Mental and Behavioral Health virtual client encounters provide direction on prioritization of care with solutions for both acute and chronic Mental/Behavioral Health care. Our unique collection of virtual nursing simulations capture multiple scenarios where learners can help prevent mental illness, intervene in situations such as substance abuse and create plans for each patient’s overall well-being.

The authentic scenarios within these products provide learners with the opportunity to work through dozens of situations wherein they must make care decisions based upon a wide range of factors. In this solution, we also explore the role of Telehealth Nursing Series™ in Mental and Behavioral Health. With multiple methods of learning and interaction, these simulations immerse your learners in multiple critical thinking scenarios that mirror what’s happening in healthcare today.
