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
