Session Overview

Overview:

Learners frequently arrive for simulation in an anxious and dysregulated mental state. Knowing that they are being recorded during the simulation session causes performance anxiety and nervousness. Their nervousness, while understandable, can interfere with their ability to absorb information, make meaning out of, and maximize their educational value in simulation encounters. Our team at the Samuel Merritt University Health Sciences Simulation Center (SMU-HSSC) is addressing this issue by offering brief centering exercises prior to the start of all simulations. During this learning session, participants will learn how to incorporate mindfulness activities into simulation practice.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Illustrate process of how the center developed 3D printed or silicone-based task trainers, anatomical models for simulation education as well as educational tools, prototypes, and other medical devices to support learner education.
  2. Discuss benefits and ROI for utilizing 3D printer education objects in healthcare simulation.
