Abstract:
In this webinar, the presenter will showcase his experience as a Healthcare Simulation Technologist within the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS), at the Dinwoodie Assessment and Simulation Hub (DASH) Medical Simulation Centre in Northumbria. DASH opened its doors to the first simulation course on 7th September 2016, and is a state of the art department based at Wansbeck General Hospital. DASH was transformed from a ward into flexible, realistic teaching environment with funding from the trust.
The presenter will share his role in championing innovative simulation technologies within the program to clinical educators and administrators alike, specifically around Mixed Reality (XR) training technologies. He will share how he has been able to increase utilization of simulation technologies while simultaneously reducing clinical educator stress.
Finally, the presenter will discuss his vision for the future of medical simulation.
Learning Objectives:
- Share the experiences of working as a clinical simulation technologist in the NHS.
- Showcase innovative simulation technologies, including XR technologies, which have improved outcomes at the DASH simulation center.
- Consider the future of simulation-based training and the technologies of the future.
