Good to know
- Free on Meta Quest (store app) and in the browser when it launches.
- Practice, not certification. It does not certify you or replace your course assessment.
- This is a clinical judgment practice case built around the six skills in the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model. It is practice, not exam preparation from any exam body.
- Scoring, debriefs, team sessions and assessment are part of the full version through your school. See nursing education.
