Simulation-Based Education A Practical Approach for Health and Care Educators

With an increasing focus on Simulation-Based Education (SBE) in health care, this new book is a step-by-step guide to becoming an effective SBE educator.

Simulation-Based Education provides practical advice for undergraduate and postgraduate educators on how to plan and deliver SBE across a range of health and social care disciplines. It covers the planning, delivery and evaluation of SBE, hints and tips for success, and interactive immersive simulation in a variety of education settings.

Written by SBE specialists from across the healthcare disciplines, the book uses a 'workshop' approach that encourages readers to evaluate their current practice and apply new knowledge to develop their strengths, making it invaluable for the entire SBE team.

• Practical guide suitable for all types and levels of faculty, including teaching staff, technicians, technologists and simulated patients
• Offers an experiential, workshop-based approach - can be used as a guide for educators to develop their own SBE
• Expert contributors drawn from across the healthcare disciplines
• Interactive sections and 'next steps' encourage the reader to hone their current practice
• Aligns with the dimensions of Advance Higher Education (HE) - can be used as a faculty development tool and as a facilitator for application to the HEA for fellowship
• Each chapter maps to the Association of Medical Educators (AoME) domains; General Medical Council (GMC) trainer domains; the Association for Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPIH) themes; United Kingdom Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF) domains
