Yet another must-see simulation technology from ASPIH 2018, today we examine iRIS: an intuitive, collaborative, simulation scenario authoring platform which can work with almost any manikin brand. Imagine having one collaborative simulation scenario development software which could easily convert your simulation experiences into almost any high fidelity patient simulator’s technology with the click of a [...]

Kate Rogers, Learning & Simulation Technologist at QuEST Service Education Directorate of Wexham Park Hospital wrote in to share about their new ‘Science of Simulation’ video series of moulage tutorials now on youtube! The Science of Healthcare Simulation series hopes to improve clinical simulation through observation and experimentation. Filmed by Mark Foster and modeled by Karolina Bielinska, [...]

Although the role of medical simulation in improving patient safety outcomes and healthcare education is well established, the Return on Investment (ROI) for healthcare simulation activities is sometimes harder to quantify. A recent complex article by Bukhari, Andreatta, Goldiez and Rabelon (2017) provides a detailed methodology for determining the monetary return on investment for medical [...]
