A web-based training system for elevating nursing students' risk sensitivity.
On-site training through role plays and the use of audio-visual resources has been effective to enhance nurses' capacity to foresee potential risks. Nevertheless, reports on accidents by nursing students or novice nurses continue to exist. This paper proposes a web-based training system as a new teaching strategy for elevating nursing students'risk sensitivity. It introduces two case studies involving possible falling risks. It consists of simulation based on these case studies and diagnostic tests. It is suggested this system should be used to examine nurses' capability of avoiding risks.
