Research Interest
Dr. Janine E Hinton is an Associate Clinical Professor and Simulation Director for the University of Arizona College of Nursing responsible for both the Gilbert Simulation Center and the Tucson Steele Innovative Learning Center. She has more than 35 years of nursing experience including 17 years in simulation-based education and research. Hinton is a Center for University Education Scholarship (CUES) Distinguished Fellow and National League for Nursing Leadership Institute, Simulation Alum (2019). She is an early and persistent adopter of simulation-based education (SBE) strategies and technologies to improve preparation of new nurses to enter the workforce. Her research interests include designing and testing intelligent simulation environments for promoting and validating nursing practice competencies. This work includes the use of extended reality, augmented and artificial intelligence, sensor technologies, and robotics. She is also interested in identifying the amounts and types of simulation-based activities that best support improved clinical practice habits such as preventing medication errors and failure to rescue patients experiencing physiologic deterioration.
