Now that Sim Kits are making their way into the hands of healthcare professionals and are becoming the go-to just-in-time training tool, the question becomes, how can healthcare simulation scale Sim Kits to meet a larger organizational need? This HealthySimulation.com article builds upon a previous article, “How Automation is Advancing Quality Healthcare Simulation.” This article [...]
Inventory control systems, also referred to as asset management systems, help healthcare simulation programs to better understand their inventory or medical supplies, medical simulation equipment, or other equipment necessary to maintain clinical simulation operations. Task trainers, manikins, or various other simulators are expenses of the equipment needed to properly educate and train healthcare simulation learners. [...]
Since 2020, many healthcare simulation centers have become familiar with the term “distance simulation.” The ability to provide distance simulation instruction is one factor that separated those healthcare simulation centers that were able to continue instruction during COVID-19 from those that were not. As a result of increased reliance on distance simulation, healthcare simulation leaders [...]
An automated approach to quality healthcare simulation can be easier to accomplish than anticipated. Healthcare continues to be driven by the demands of decreased staffing and increased patient visits, thereby leading to an increased reliance on those who remain to care for patients. Oftentimes, the clinical simulation team is pulled to the bedside, resulting in [...]
