Background: Over the past decade, there has been significant progress in simulation-based learning in the healthcare sector around the world. The literature revealed that this teaching method can help nursing and midwifery students to be well prepared for practice. Nevertheless, there is little published information about the use of simulations in nursing and midwifery education in Morocco. Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the use of clinical simulation to teach sexual, reproductive, maternal and neonatal health (SRMNH) skills to nursing and midwifery students at the Higher Institute of Nursing Professions and Health Techniques (HINPHT) located in Fes and its annexes, Meknes and Taza. Design: An explanatory sequential mixed methods approach design was adopted. The quantitative study was carried out through an online questionnaire, while qualitative data was gathered via in-depth interviews. All second- and third-year students were invited to participate in this study, however, only 276 honoured our invitation. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) computer software (version 26). Results: The use of simulation technology in nursing and midwifery education at the Institute of Fes and its annexes in Meknes and Taza is present. However, the study revealed a lack of materials and equipment and a low level of student satisfaction. Conclusion: Educators lack equipment and supplies to achieve the best learning outcomes for the different students learning approaches. Further commitment to equipping laboratories is urgently required.
