As healthcare systems become more complex, the demand for skilled professionals grows, placing increasing pressure on clinical educators to adapt their teaching methods. To ensure that future healthcare workers are fully prepared for the challenges they’ll face, simulation-based education must evolve. Clinical educators are on the front lines of this transformation, navigating staffing shortages, fluctuating …

In today’s medical education, having realistic simulations is essential for effective training. In a recent webinar hosted by Healthysimulation.com, Dr. Willem van Meurs discussed how accurate physiological models improve medical simulators. These models allow simulators to respond dynamically to different medical situations, making training more realistic and consistent, which is especially important in high-pressure environments. …

My friend was just 33. She had painful, rope-like tissue on her upper-right breast and went to her doctor, who then ordered a mammogram out of an abundance of caution. After that, she had an ultrasound of the “lump” in question. Everything matched up—mammogram to ultrasound—to everyone’s relief. But something else had popped up on …

The world needs more nurses. Fueled by an aging population, an increase in nurse retirements, formidable education timelines, fatigue, burnout and stress, more nurses are stepping away from the profession than, perhaps, ever before. Though the COVID-19 pandemic helped widen the gap, the rising demand for nurses dates years back. A pre-pandemic report from the …

The 2023 International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH) has come and gone.

Though worldwide air traffic has increased substantially over the past 20 years, aviation-related fatalities have dropped significantly, from 450 per year to 250, a decrease of about 56%. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for error-related casualties in healthcare. According to McKinsey 2020 data, medical errors kill approximately 250,000 people annually in the United States …

Simulation helps people prepare for the moments that matter – without the risks inherent in real-life practice. But to be effective, these simulation experiences must feel as close to the real thing as possible. Why? Without realism, participants don’t take the simulation seriously, missing the opportunity for experiential learning. What’s more, they may learn the …

The Canadian healthcare system had to be creative and resilient to meet the population’s needs during the global pandemic over the past two years. The system overload shook Quebec and many parts of the world given the labour shortage and the exhaustion of healthcare workers on the front lines. Despite that, at every stage of …

Virtual learning environments for healthcare may help to fulfill education requirements by providing a sufficiently viable replacement for mandated clinical hours (as supported by INACSL and SSH.org1).
