Abstract
Background
There is a lack of research that identifies the status of implementing the debriefing
best practice standards and training needs to enhance debriefer competency.
Question
This study aimed to identify the status of debriefing best practice standards implementation
and training priorities in nursing simulation educators using importance-performance
analysis.
Methods
This was a cross-sectional descriptive survey with a convenience sample of 143 Korean
nursing simulation educators. Collected data included perceived importance and self-assessed
performance of debriefing best practice standards implementation and debriefer competency.
Findings
The overall self-assessed performance score was significantly lower than the overall
perceived importance of debriefing best practice standards implementation. There were
significant positive correlations between Debriefing Assessment for Simulation in
Healthcare rubric and importance-performance. The need for debriefer skills development
had the highest training demand.
Discussion
An assessment of the perception of debriefing practice can be used to inform future
debriefer competency development training programs by identifying areas of improvement
according to debriefers.
Conclusion
There are differences between self-rated competency in debriefing and the importance.
There is a need for professional development to achieve optimal debriefer competency.
Further study is needed to identify the effects of a debriefer skills development
program on debriefer competency and learner outcomes.
