In a survey of 250 ATI Real Life Clinical Reasoning student users, results showed that Real Life not only improved their clinical performance but continued to be effective during their employment as newly licensed nurses. The versatility of Real Life has proven successful, too. Students who participated in a “flipped classroom” environment, a teacher-led activity that is included in the tool’s capabilities, reported their clinical skills improved in several key areas.

The NCSBN National Simulation Study found that education quality remains consistent when digital simulation replaces up to 50% of traditional clinical experience. These findings help nursing schools develop more complete, flexible, and cost-effective simulation programs by validating the addition of digital simulation to their current efforts.

Real Life gives us ways to think about clinical decision making in a safe environment. Students see what they do has a direct result on patient care and how the decisions they make improve or don’t improve care. When they choose an incorrect answer, they learn from their mistakes.”
