Abstract:
Many programs want to integrate Standardized Patient (SP) into simulation because they want to create the highest fidelity clinical simulation experiences possible for their learners. Though the list of benefits for SP simulation is long, many simulationists new to working with SPs say that getting started is a daunting task. During this 1 hour webinar Standardized Patient (aka Simulated Patient) experts will provide a road map to creating an affordable and sustainable Standardized Patient program. This webinar will discuss Association for Simulated Patient Eduactors (ASPE) standards of best practice, SP candidate interview questions, and SP training recommendations will be made!
Learning Objectives:
- Examine introductory steps to starting a Standardized Patient program.
- Identify at least two resources for getting started with Standardized Patients.
- Analyze at least two barriers for starting a Standardized Patient program, and ways participants can over come them.
