LGBTQI2S Virtual Simulation: Lessons Learned Using Actors With Lived Experience
Abstract
Abstract \xa0To address a gap in nursing education regarding cultural humility and the health care needs of the LGBTQI2S an educational eLearning toolkit was created which incorporated virtual simulation games (VSG). The innovative VSGs depicted realistic clinical scenarios and featured actors from the LGBTQI2S community. This article shares our experiences, challenges and lessons learned in creating the VSGs. Additionally, the concept of psychological safety is addressed when using actors with lived experience in the creation of VSGs.
