Training the Trainers Course
BMSC possesses the widest range of simulators in the UK. This popular and unique course is specially designed for a small group of educators who wish to discover how to use simulators as teaching tools. You will be introduced to 6 different adult simulators, 3 different paediatric simulators, including a neonate, and the software packages provided by 3 different simulator manufacturers.
The course is presented as a one or two day option and draws on the independent knowledge Bristol has gleaned from over 10 years course experience. The one day course is an introduction to a wide range of essential skills. Faculty will be able to provide impartial opinions and advice during hands-on tutorial sessions which allow you to become more familiar with the simulators whilst learning how to construct and debrief a teaching session. The two day course allows more time to be spent on scripting skills and leads small groups through the process of evolving course material in greater depth.
The programme will cover:
Technical set-up of ECS, HPS, Pediasim, SimMan, SimBaby and HAL
Design of static scenarios
Scenario scripting for dynamic sessions
Practical moulage workshop
Paediatric simulation workshop
Mobile and off-site simulation
