title: Using high-fidelity simulation as a teaching strategy with Baby Boomers returning to the RN workforce.
abstract: As a result of a changing economy, many Baby Boomer nurses are returning to the workforce. Common teaching strategies used in schools of nursing, such as high-fidelity simulation, are unfamiliar to this group of learners. Educators must learn not only the characteristics of Baby Boomer returning nurses but also how to adapt simulation to their learning styles.
