DxR Nursing Select is an essential tools for
training up nursing performance

Nursing is full of critical decisions. To make them, nurses need clinical reasoning skills they can’t learn from textbooks. That’s where DxR Nursing SELECT offers them an edge. Virtual patients bring the process to life, allowing nursing students to assess, diagnose, develop care plans, and evaluate client progress, with real-time feedback and scoring to hone their skills.

Chart Assessment

Students interact with
an electronic chart to identify pertinent client data.

Physical Assessment

Students apply physical exam "tools" to the patient's picture to conduct a virtual physical exam and gather data needed to select nursing diagnoses.

Nursing Diagnosis

Students use the data from the chart and the physical assessment to develop a list of the client problems, selected from the complete database of NANDA-I Nursing Diagnoses.*

Care Planning

Students develop a care plan by reviewing the desired client outcomes and then selecting nursing interventions that would help the client achieve those outcomes.

Progress Evaluation

After a period of "virtual time" students review updated client data, such as progress reports, vital signs flow sheets, and a recorded nurse/client conversation, to assess whether the client has shown progress toward the desired outcomes.

Student Score Reports

Decisions made by students in each section of a DxR Nursing SELECT case are compared to the criteria set by the case author to produce a score report, providing insight into the student's thinking in key areas of the nursing process. These detailed individual scoring summaries are also viewable by the instructor.

Instructor Score Reports

Instructors can see a snapshot of individual student performance as well as group performance statistics in each part of the case.
