“If I go to see someone about my eyes, my eyes are what I am, and the rest of me doesn’t matter. It’s the same with mental health. If I go to see someone for a mental health problem, I am a mental health problem,” said a mental health focus group participant discussing clinician approaches [...]
Simulation is used in healthcare primarily to meet educational and training objectives, as well as to improve patient safety outcomes. As there are many different kinds of clinical simulation, the simulationist must first take a step back and consider which type of healthcare simulation modality is best suited to meet their specific objectives. Broadly speaking, [...]
The 2021 International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH) clinical simulation presentation titled “Should Healthcare Follow Aviation & Require Periodic Testing” described how to integrate aviation concepts and techniques into healthcare simulation for ongoing, periodic, summative evaluation and training. Authored by Teresa Gore, Tim Whitaker and Andrew Spain, the healthcare simulation presentation also compared and [...]
The International Pediatric Simulation Society (IPSS) works to promote and support multidisciplinary healthcare simulation-based education in caring for infants and children. In doing so, the organization was inspired to develop additional avenues for members of the clinical simulation community to connect, collaborate and have exclusive access to global leaders without the constraints of location and [...]
While clinical simulation is not real, healthcare educators need learners to treat each simulated learning activity as if the scenario is real, to maximize the educational benefits of simulation-based learning (SBL). The clinical simulation team at Baylor University Louise Herrington School of Nursing (LHSON) in Dallas, Texas, chose to upgrade their skills lab with Lifecast [...]
