Course Objectives
• Identify components of Pre-programmed
Scenarios
• Discuss preparation requirements for a simulation
to increase the simulation's psychological fidelity.
• Using a Pre-programmed scenario handout, locate
and review the scenario's learning objectives,
proposed correct treatment and debriefing
content.
• Discuss the instructor’s role in planning,
facilitating, and debriefing simulations.
• Demonstrate planning, facilitation, and debriefing
of a clinical simulation.

Review Scenario Files
Review learning Objectives
•
Verify that objectives match the
program’s learning goals and the
learner’s current skill level.
•
When learning objectives are
revised, update the content areas
that are inter-dependent such the
scenario file, props and other cues,
and debriefing points
Review Correct Treatment
•
Review the correct treatment
guidelines – determine what behavior
the learner should demonstrate
during the simulation.
•
Remember, any changes made to
this area must also be addressed in
the learning objectives and other
interdependent content areas.
Review Debriefing Points
•
Debriefing topics are usually
anchored to the scenario’s
learning objectives and
educational content.
•
Instructors are encouraged to
remain flexible when formulating
debriefing topics. Unexpected
events may occur during a case
that warrants exploration during
the debriefing.

Prepare the Environment and Simulator
•
According to evidence within the
simulation literature, the psychological
fidelity (realism) of a simulation is
important to learners.
•
Learner prefer cases that feel real
Use Realistic Materials
Patient Identification Bracelet
Provider Orders
Patient Information Card
Documentation Form
Prepare Environment & Simulator
•
•
•
Assemble Equipment and Medications
– ECG monitor
– Stethoscope and BP cuff
– Crash cart
– Chart
– Medications
Prepare the Environment
– Examination room
– Sounds (phones ringing, etc.)
– People (assistants, physician, and technicians)
Prepare the Simulator
– Dress appropriately
– Moulage as needed (blood, emesis, etc.)
– Provide Props (pill bottles, inhaler, prayer beads, etc.)
Prepare the Learners
•
Learners are more likely to succeed
when they know what is expected of
them. This section provides tips on
how to prepare learners for a
simulation.
– Examine the simulator prior to
the simulation. Review
features and capabilities (voice,
pulse points, drug
administration, etc.)
– Permit the learners to acclimate
to the new learning
environment.
– Review learning objectives.
– Report to Student
– Discuss roles.
Guidelines for the Lab
•
•
•
•
•
•
Confidentiality is critical.
Set Expectations.
Treat the simulator as you would treat a real patient.
Act like you would in a real clinical situation.
– No food and drinks
– No cell phones or text messaging
– Dress appropriately
Most labs require students to sign confidentiality agreements.
Develop Fiction Contract
Instructor’s Role during Simulation
•
Behavioral guidelines for facilitating a healthcare simulation
– Welcome the learners and communicate your expectations about
their clinical performance, affective behavior and professionalism.
For example:
• “Welcome – You are about to participate in a simulated patient
case. The patient has a chief complaint – I expect you to
assess the patient and manage her to the best of your ability.
Treat the simulated patient as an actual human patient. This
case lasts approximately 10 minutes. We’ll debrief as a team
following the case.”
– Emphasize the simulator’s features. For example:
• “I expect that you will ask the patient questions and actually
assess their vital signs – please do not ask me for this
information.”
– Permit the learners to ask questions prior to the simulation.
Instructor’s Role during Simulation
•
•
•
•
Begin the case when the learners are ready
Observe the learners performance
Register events using the Graphic User Interface (optional)
The instructor must decide under what conditions they would interrupt
the simulation.
–
For example, safety-related violations that may injure a learner
warrant intervention while a learner’s deviation from the learning
objectives is an opportunity for all parties to learn and may not
warrant interruption. Typically, when in a testing situation, the
instruction would not offer cues and advice to the learner. When
teaching, it is not uncommon to pause a simulation to offer
assistance to the learner.
