Paediatric and neonatal simulation Instructor Course

RCPCH has approved this activity for CPD in accordance with the current RCPCH CPD Guidelines.

About this course

The 2 day course has been significantly changed to emphasise more on debriefing and provide training on how to deliver virtual simulation training effectively.

The focus on effective debriefing skills and video feedback and also on practical tips to set up point-of-care simulation and writing and programming of the scenarios remains.
The hands on experience in small group sessions will allow participants to successfully execute their simulation sessions and significantly further their debriefing skills in a safe and supported learning environment.

Topics covered

The programme will include:

• Adult Learning Theory: Foundation of Simulation
• Elements of Human factors - Team working, Communication, Situation Monitoring, Leadership
• The Art of Debriefing
• The Debriefing Model
• Video Practise of Debriefing
• An Overview of Point-Of-Care Simulation
• Familiarisation with the simulator and simulation environment
• Virtual delivery of simulation training
• Scenario writing, programming and executing

Audience

The Paediatric and Neonatal Simulation Instructor Course is specially designed for paediatric and neonatal educators who wish to implement or enhance a simulation programme in their local work environment.
