Abstract

Aim: This study examines the impact of interprofessional simulation (IPS) on clinical decision-making among nursing students in Bahrain. Methodology: Using Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), six undergraduate nursing students completed semi-structured interviews after participating in an IPS session with medical students. Findings: The analysis identified three Group Experiential Themes: From Stress to Success, Learning to Lead, and Empowered to Practice, illustrating students' progression from stress management to leadership and empowerment. These findings suggest IPS enhances teamwork, communication, and confidence in clinical decision-making. IPS is proposed as a valuable method for preparing nursing students to navigate complex clinical environments safely and effectively.
