Simulation Education: from Expert to Practice

Siriraj Medical Simulation Center for Education and Training (SiMSET) was established under the Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University since 2015. One of the purposes of this simulation center foundation is for training the healthcare personnel who are interested in using simulation for medical education. The SiMSET had cooperated with the Thai Society for Simulation in Healthcare (Thai-SSH) in teaching simulation for medical education for many years, both for basic simulation principles and advanced faculty development. Although we have contributed the effective teaching that aiming for the patient safety, we now realize that most of the trainings are focused on only skill and knowledge training. Professionalism training in healthcare is also an important issue nowadays especially the inter-professional education (IPE). Simulation is proved to be an effective method for teaching the IPE, but the experience of teaching the IPE in Thailand is not significance.

Department of Emergency Medicine, in cooperated with Thai-SSH, SiMSET and Siriraj Health science Education Excellent center (SHEE) , Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital have organized the conference project in the topic of “Simulation Education: from Expert to Practice”, which consists of 1 day academic conference and 2 days of workshop about inter-professional education in simulation.

Objective

1. Provide the basic principles for simulation and inter-professional education in healthcare

2. The participants are able to develop the IPE teaching program by using simulation.

3. The participants are able to design the appropriate IPE scenario and effectively debrief their learners.

4. Contribute to the development of future healthcare educators interested in simulation

Content

1. Basic principles and common problems in teaching simulation in healthcare

2. Sharing experiences and how to success of the simulation experts

3. Principles and experience in inter-professional education

4. Faculty development in debriefing method

5. Optimize the simulation-based assessment

6. Role of simulation in healthcare transformation
