Benefits of Using the Mock Trial Method...
Nurses are currently practicing in the midst of a litigious society which is growing larger every day. They are at great risk of being sued due to the increased roles and responsibilities, increased pressure to rely on unlicensed personnel to help them care for patients, and the ongoing changes in the medical technology they use in their everyday practice. As a result, nurses need to be educated about the legal implications of nursing practice so they can avoid a law suit.
Although mock trials have historically been used to teach law students, I have personally observed several positive benefits of using this approach in nursing education. Benefits include stimulation of critical thinking and teamwork, engaging nurses in the learning process, and the ability to quickly educate staff on a variety of topics such as regulatory requirements, standards of care, legal implications, documentation, policy and procedure, and the nursing scope of practice. Another great feature is that you only need 18 learners to conduct a mock trial. So you can use this approach and any size facility.Describe the process of developing a mock trial for nursing education...
