Session Overview
Overview:
Psychological safety is the bedrock of effective healthcare simulation, yet it is often compromised by environmental and instructional oversights.
This session explores evidence-based strategies to protect learners during high-fidelity scenarios. Participants will examine the ‘Safe Container’ framework, the impact of physical transitions—such as debriefing in separate locations and utilizing structured feedback tools.
By prioritizing the learner’s mental well-being, educators can transform simulation from a source of anxiety into a powerful engine for clinical competency and professional growth.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Analyze the core components of the “Safe Container” framework to identify key strategies that mitigate learner anxiety during high-fidelity simulation.
Evaluate the impact of environmental and physical transitions—such as debriefing locations—on learner psychological safety.
Apply structured feedback tools and evidence-based strategies within simulation design to foster clinical competency and professional growth.
