28-year-old female who was admitted in active labor yesterday at 0800. She had a 26-hour labor with 2 hours of pushing and delivered a healthy baby at 1000 today via vaginal delivery. She has some questions about breastfeeding. Students implement routine postpartum orders. This scenario can be used for or high- or low-fidelity simulation. In high-fidelity simulation, the patient videos and tabbed chart content can be used to augment the reality of the simulation. In low-fidelity simulation, the instructor can use role play, in association with the scenario content, to stimulate student critical thinking and discussion about postnatal care topics.
