Developing a program, a curriculum, a scenario

Full-scale simulation may be used to train medical students in disaster medicine

“…This time for learning may also be used to build up simulation training experiences. 5 With the introduction of disaster medicine in the medical school curriculum, students with a special interest in the field could be recruited and students could be used as a resource should a disaster occur. 13 A three-day full-scale simulation course with workshops and lectures like the work presented as Trauma Days 2013 may be useful as an educational introduction to the topic of disaster medicine.…”

“…14 First the financial and logistic resources were identified, which has to be the first step in program design, and then the subject was chosen and the key learning goals established. 5 The course curriculum consisted of workshops and lectures related to disaster medicine, along with three additional full-scale simulation-training scenarios. The lectures were held by experts within the given fields and the workshops and simulations were facilitated by junior doctors and paramedics with great experience in medical simulation and workshop-based education.…”

“…Simulation training allows clinical situations to be recreated and trained in a controlled environment and can also be used to train teamwork and communication skills. 4,5 Simulations are traditionally performed at simulation centres. However, it is generally recommended to choose a location for simulation depending on the learning possibilities and objectives desired.…”

Competências gerenciais relacionadas à segurança do paciente: uma revisão integrativa

“…O presente estudo ainda indica o desenvolvimento das competências com instrumentos e técnicas diferenciados, o que permite supor que o ensino e a aprendizagem realizados de forma tradicional, dentro de um paradigma positivista, disciplinarmente organizado, não cabem no contexto da segurança do paciente. Dessa forma, educadores, gestores e professores, além de estarem continuamente preparados em seus conhecimentos teóricos, devem utilizar metodologias educativas inovadoras, que permitam aos profissionais e estudantes transformar informações em conhecimentos significativos e aplicáveis 8,17,29,33,36 .…”

Improving patient outcomes through supervision and simulation

“…Increasing the number of procedures performed under direct supervision is arguably a standard towards which all residency training programmes should strive, but achieving that standard is not without its challenges. In addition to the decline in opportunities to be involved in certain procedures, the more general restriction on resident work hours and associated limitations in hands‐on training contribute further to the issue . How can these challenges of time, exposure and experience be overcome?…”
