الملخص:<h3 dir="ltr">Background</h3><p dir="ltr">Compassionate care is essential for enhancing patient outcomes and satisfaction. Despite established positive outcomes, the effectiveness of simulation-based training in fostering compassionate behaviors among nurses remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by evaluating the impact of simulation-based compassionate care training on nurses' caring behavior, self-efficacy and compassion competence.</p><h3 dir="ltr">Aim</h3><p dir="ltr">This study aimed to evaluate the effects of simulation-based compassionate care training on nurses' caregiving behavior, self-efficacy and compassion competence. </p><h3 dir="ltr">Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">A quasi-experimental design was employed with 100 nurses from the Medical City, Qassim University simulation center. Participants were recruited using convenience sampling and allocated to an intervention group, which received simulation-based training and a control group. Data were collected using standardized scales measuring caregiving behavior, self-efficacy and compassion competence before and after the training from November 2024 to January 2025. </p><h3 dir="ltr">Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The intervention group exhibited significant improvements in caregiving behavior (from 44.2 to 77.32, p < 0.001), self-efficacy (from 21.16 to 33.72, p < 0.001) and compassion competence across its domains of communication, sensitivity and insight, with p-values indicating statistically significant changes. In contrast, the control group showed minimal changes across these domains, with p-values indicating no significant differences. </p><h3 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">The findings highlight the effectiveness of simulation-based compassionate care training in enhancing nurses' caregiving behaviors, self-efficacy and compassionate competence. Integrating such training into nursing education is essential for improving patient care quality and fostering a compassionate healthcare environment.</p><h2 dir="ltr">Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Nurse Education in Practice<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nepr.2025.104470" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.nepr.2025.104470</a></p>
