Useful App for Teaching Nursing Leadership

I will use this app as an adjunct to my nursing leadership and management course when we cover delegation and staffing. Very interactive, gives rationales. Great learning tool!

Nursing student

So far this is incredibly helpful!!! I wish it was made sooner. I appreciate how you get to see the experts answer directly next to your own. It really forces you too think critically.

I love playing sim games but have had trouble finding a productive way to play them. This app is practical and effective at applying theories in nursing practice.

I know I will for sure use this prioritization structure in clinicals.
