Telesimulation, Strategy for Academic Continuity and Interprofessional Training in Health Sciences

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has altered all aspects of daily life. Education has been greatly affected, despite living in a technological present, not all teachers or institutions have the necessary preparation or resources to achieve quality continuity. Telesimulation is a direct derivation of clinical simulation, a formal teaching technique that promotes active learning in controlled and safe spaces, but in this modality, the interaction is synchronous and remote. Interprofessionalism in health sciences, the basis of integral clinical care, can find training spaces through telesimulation.
