Abstract:
This CE webinar will focus on discussions around realism in healthcare simulations scenarios, and building clinical simulation centers to meet this objective. The notion of why realism is important, the types of realism, and different strategies to promote realism will all be discussed. Setting up your medical simulation center with realism, for real-life application and experiential learning is important to bridge the gap between classroom and clinical experiences. Creating the right scenarios with a realistic nursing simulation or healthcare simulation environment may help to facilitate the transference of needed health professional skills to the clinical setting. Different strategies and examples will be provided.
Learning Objectives:
- Define realism as it relates to clinical simulation.
- Describe the types and importance of realism as it relates to healthcare simulation learning or training outcomes.
- Discuss approaches to use when designing medical simulation encounters when building healthcare simulation centers.
