Your course faculty will schedule, provide any preparation instructions, and be present during your simulation session.
Every simulation experience includes:
- The Prebrief: An information or orientation session held prior to the start of a simulation activity in which instructions or preparatory information, including information about the simulators and any required equipment/supplies, is given to the participants. The purpose of the prebriefing is to set the stage for a scenario and assist participants in achieving scenario objectives.
- The Simulation Scenario: A case study designed to promote learning in a real-life setting. Learners actively participate in the scenario or skills lab learning through experiencing caring for the patient/client or practicing procedures.
- The Debrief: To conduct a session after a simulation event where educators/instructors/facilitators and learners re-examine the simulation experience to encourage participants’ reflective thinking and provide feedback about their performance.
