Abstract Losing a loved one in the intensive care unit relates to a risk of developing stress and complicated grief. Education in intensive care nursing should cover end‐of‐life care, and the use of simulation in nursing education is a powerful instrument to develop confidence in end‐of‐life care. The aim of this study was to explore postgraduate nursing students' experiences with simulation training in end‐of‐life communication with intensive care patients and their families. Twenty‐nine students answered a questionnaire and nine students participated in an interview. Analyses were conducted according to the principles of phenomenography. The result is presented in four categories including the following: the design of the scenario affects learning, uncertainty overshadows learning, intertwining theory and practice contributes to learning, and learning to encounter existential dimensions. The conclusion is that high‐fidelity simulation training contributes toward preparing students to be attuned to what it can be like to be a family member in this situation. The scenarios contributed toward preparing the students to engage in end‐of‐life conversations during clinical placements.
