Description

Simulation facilities are invaluable for training in medicine and clinical education, biomedical engineering and life sciences. They allow the practice of prevention, containment, treatment, and procedure in a risk-free setting.

This book is a practical guide and reference to the latest technology, operations and opportunities presented by clinical simulation. It shows how to develop and make efficient use of resources, and provides hands-on information to those tasked with setting up and delivering simulation facilities for medical, clinical and related purposes, and the development and delivery of simulation-based education programs

Key Features

  • A step-by-step manual to developing successful simulation programs
  • Shows how to design, construct, outfit and run simulation facilities for clinical education and research.
  • The Residency Review Committee of the US Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education has begun requiring residency programs to have simulation as an integral part of their training programs.

Readership

Biomedical Engineers; Clinical, Medical and Healthcare Educators; Clinical Education Administrators

Table of Contents

Purposes for Simulation Programs; Personnel Unique to Simulation; Facilities Required for Simulation Productions; Resources Used in Simulation Facilities; Simulated Patients; Scenario Examples; References and Index.
