Give Your Toys a Broader Story: Simulation for Advocacy, Community Education, and Empowerment.

Abstract

As we better understand how to deliver the most effective medical simulation, the applications and indications are growing. One way to extend the impact of these tools and methods is for community education and empowerment. Developing mobile simulation units with the intent to reach health care and community settings is a way to add value to a costly but worthy endeavor. Here we focus on developing bundles of medical simulation for pediatric populations and their families, including curricular objectives, considerations for psychological safety, and operations.
