Here is the first book to respond to the growing movement towards
clinical simulations in health care education. It provides all of
the guidance needed to make an informed decision about whether to
begin using patient simulators . describes how to develop and
operate a simulation center . and discusses how to design
educational and assessment simulations that reflect specific
educational curricula. Features the expertise of three authorities
who have extensive experience in working with the University of
Louisville School of Medicine's Dr. John M. and Dorothy Paris
Simulation Center-one of the leading medical simulation centers in
the world. Explains the value of simulation for a variety of
healthcare disciplines and discusses which types of simulations are
most relevant for each field. Discusses the resources (space,
personnel, equipment) needed to establish a simulation program.
Evaluates the specific simulation products that are currently
available. Details the "nuts and bolts" of preparing relevant
"patients" and scenarios. Describes applications for assessment,
certification, and re-certification. Presents an overview of future
trends in simulation (such as virtual reality simulations) and
discusses issues related to planning for simulation center growth.
