Simulated Patient Programs

Simulated Patient Programs involve trained actors who portray real patients to help healthcare students and professionals practice and improve their clinical skills. These actors follow specific scripts and provide realistic responses, allowing learners to experience real-life patient interactions in a controlled environment. This approach enhances skills like communication, diagnosis, and empathy without risking patient safety. Simulated patient programs are widely used in medical, nursing, and healthcare education to ensure practitioners are well-prepared before working with actual patients.
