These scenarios included single and intersecting forms of oppression including racism, sexism, ableism, ethnocentrism, and weight bias. We also trained faculty, who had no prior simulation debriefing experience, to facilitate and debrief the simulation sessions. Thirty-three residents participated and reported an increase in confidence immediately following the simulation training; this increase was sustained at 3 months. Faculty participants reported increased empathy for residents, recognition of microaggressions, and confidence facilitating conversation after microaggressions that occur both in the simulated setting and in real life.
