Leading Change in Health Education: Assessing Organisational Readiness to Implement Simulation in Multidisciplinary Programmes.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundSimulation-based education (SBE) is recognised as a highly effective approach for preparing healthcare students for clinical practice. However, its consistent integration and long-term sustainability remain challenging, often due to insufficient resources, limited faculty capability and the absence of robust educational frameworks. Organisational readiness, which is an important yet under-examined determinant of SBE success, plays a critical role in overcoming these barriers, particularly in multidisciplinary and multi-campus contexts.
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate an organisation's readiness to implement SBE programmes across diverse health disciplines by applying the Simulation Culture Organisational Readiness Survey (SCORS).
methodsThe SCORS tool, comprising four subscales and 38 Likert-scale items, measures readiness for change, availability of resources and capacity for sustainable development. A cross-sectional survey was conducted via Qualtrics XM, supplemented with demographic data to account for participants' disciplinary backgrounds.
resultsA total of 43 staff completed the survey, with the largest representation from Nursing (46%) and Physiotherapy (14%). The highest mean score was observed in Section A-Need and Support for Change (3.04), indicating a strong perceived value for SBE. Conversely, Section C-Time, Personnel and Resource Readiness-recorded the lowest mean score (2.31), signalling significant operational challenges. The overall readiness score of 103.86 placed the organisation as 'somewhat ready' for SBE integration, with administrators identified as key influencers in the adoption process. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Findings highlight the need for a centralised, strategically governed SBE framework supported by sufficient resourcing, embedded leadership and faculty development. Clear reporting structures, coordinated resource allocation and a service-oriented operational model are recommended to ensure interdisciplinary collaboration and sustainability across campuses. These findings have direct implications for nursing management, particularly for nurse education leaders, nursing simulation programme managers and academic nursing managers responsible for aligning simulation governance, faculty workload allocation, capability development and curriculum integration within nursing and wider health programmes.
conclusionAchieving sustainable SBE integration requires a whole-of-organisation approach that aligns governance, pedagogy and operational capacity, ensuring that simulation becomes a core, enduring component of health professional education.
