This literature review aimed to synthesize the research findings related to simulation challenges in medical education and provide recommendations to overcome these difficulties. Methods: Eleven articles were reviewed after searching from databases of CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar. Results: Four themes were revealed, namely, student disengagement, human resources, technical issues, and time constraints. Based on these findings, recommendations were provided to help readers overcome the inherent challenges of simulation-based training. Conclusion: Besides the benefits that simulation brings to medical education, many challenges exist. Educators need to discover, test, and find ways to improve existing challenges.
