Simulation

Simulation-based education (SBE) is an educational methodology that incorporates a range of modalities and tools to facilitate experiential learning.

Simulation is a big part of AWSEM training and has a particular focus on improving patient safety through an understanding of non-technical skills.

It should:

  • provide quality assured training to a high standard in safe learning environments
  • have an emphasis on interprofessional opportunities to promote collaborative working in the clinical setting
  • be available to health care professionals of all levels of experience, to learn, rehearse and evolve the knowledge, skills, behaviours, and professionalism needed for good practice
  • be equally accessible
