Commentary on: Chen HW, Cheng SF, Hsiung Y, et al. Training perinatal nurses in palliative communication by using scenario-based simulation: A quasi-experimental study. Nurse Educ Pract. 2024. 75:103885. doi: 10.1016/j.nepr.2024.103885
Implications for practice and research Scenario-based simulation (SBS) is an effective method of enhancing the confidence and competence of nurses supporting families who require perinatal palliative care.
