Is this a problem? Can we fix it?
Ok then, Let’s Debrief Any Volunteers ????
What is a simulation for? • Education • Assessment • Fun • 1 and 2
Learning Objective • You have to have a clear reason of why you are running any simulation.
Where does a simulation fit? • It depends on what your doing!
Global Objectives • Course Objectives • 1. Demonstrate a proper patient assessment • 2. Demonstrate following the emergency protocol • 3. Demonstrate Airway Management Skills
Course Schedule / Flow • Sim 1 • Sim 2 • Lecture • Skills Lab • Sim 3 • Sim 4 Course Objectives • Session Objective • Ventilate w BVM • Recognize Narcotic Overdose • Activate Protocol
How do you determine “success” of a simulation? • Students liked it • Learning objectives achieved • Students passed the scenario • Not Sure
