Healthcare Simulationists

Healthcare simulationists are trained professionals who design, implement, and evaluate realistic training scenarios using simulations such as mannequins, virtual environments, or role-playing. Their goal is to improve healthcare providers’ skills, decision-making, and teamwork in a safe, controlled setting, reducing errors and enhancing patient safety in real clinical situations. They collaborate with medical staff to create scenarios that mirror actual medical emergencies or routine procedures, allowing providers to practice and refine their skills without risking patient harm. Healthcare simulationists play a vital role in advancing medical education, competency, and overall quality of care.
