The In Situ Simulation Experience: Navigating the Obstacles
by Lynne Madori and Kay Martin
Obstacle courses can come in many ranges of difficulty, from physically demanding to mentally exhausting. Developing the hospital-based In Situ Simulation Experience program was no different for a group of nursing and simulation educators at the Children’s Medical Center of Dallas. After identifying a large knowledge gap with clinical staff, this team set out for the trek of a life time - developing a multidisciplinary in situ simulation program. This presentation explores the obstacles, solutions and drivers that were encountered by the team and the results they have achieved on their journey so far.
Learning Objectives:
Discuss the rationale for implementing a hospital wide in situ program and identify a use case for one’s facility.
Provide examples of obstacles, solutions, and motivators in the design and implementation of an in situ simulation program.
Highlight ideas to promote sustainability including logistical challenges and early stage impact as a result of qualitative data to date.
