Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic, initiated in 2020, generated important changes in educational systems, especially in nursing education. The transition to virtuality negatively impacted educational quality, limiting clinical practices, social interaction and student motivation. In the field of nursing, where technical training is essential, these deficiencies resulted in insufficient clinical skills in students, affecting their preparation to face real patient care scenarios.
Development: Recent studies, such as the one conducted at the University of Zacatecas, Mexico, showed that students without access to clinical practice during the pandemic reported deficient clinical skills in fundamental tasks such as probe placement, vital signs management, and medication administration. In response to this problem, an intervention program was designed in a private sanatorium in Rosario for probationary nurses. This project integrated practical workshops, simulation and collaborative learning to strengthen essential technical competencies. The sanatorium's infrastructure and human resources provided a suitable environment to develop this educational strategy, focused on improving care quality and patient safety.
Conclusions: This article highlighted the need for comprehensive training strategies that prioritize clinical practice as a response to the shortages generated during the pandemic. The implementation of the program not only strengthened technical skills in new nurses, but also promoted continuing professional development, establishing a replicable model in the health care setting
