Abstract
Medication administration is one of the most critical tasks for nurses. Yet, it can also be a source of anxiety and errors, especially for nursing students who are still building their skills. Many new nursing students struggle to feel confident and competent when administering medications in real clinical settings. Simulation-based learning offers a powerful way to address this challenge. Using realistic, hands-on scenarios, students can practice medication administration in a safe environment without harming patients. This approach helps students build critical skills, gain confidence, and reduce the likelihood of medication errors. Incorporating medication administration simulations into nursing pharmacology courses will improve the competency and confidence of nursing students, prepare them to provide safe patient care, and prevent medication errors.
