Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the effect of scenario-based High-Fidelity Simulation (HFS) training on the level of team cooperation, problem solving skills and autonomy of senior nursing and medical students. Material and Methods: This research was carried out in the pre-post-test single-group experimental design model, at the Simulation Center. The sample of the study consisted of a total of 210 students studying in the last year of the faculty of health sciences, department of nursing (105) and faculty of medicine (105). Within the scope of the research, a total of 35 groups were formed in groups of 6 students. Each week, the training of a group was carried out in a total of 7 stages over 2 consecutive days. The study was carried out with a multidisciplinary team. Results: In the study, it was found that before the simulation training, the nursing students’ attitude towards physician-nurse cooperation was more positive and their problem-solving skills were higher, but after the training, the positive attitudes of the medical students towards physician-nurse cooperation and their problem-solving skills increased, the autonomy level of the nursing students was lower before the simulation training, but the training It was found that there-after it increased. After the simulation training, both nursing and medical students reported that they found the scenario applied to them sufficient and important in the training process. Conclusion: It has been concluded that with an effective scenario and a HFS training, the team cooperation, problem-solving skills and autonomy level of nursing and medical students can be increased.
