The Education Hub - Teach Think Treat

In this part 2 of the simulation series, we chat with Kim Price and Dr Dom Cincotta about their experience with in-situ simulation and how they have used it to improve the care delivered to patients suffering from anaphylaxis.

Simulation has many roles in clinical healthcare. It is used as a tool for education and training, as well as testing systems, pathways and equipment. In part 1 of this series on simulation, we talk with Dr Rebecca Szabo, who introduces the concept of simulation and explains its benefits and challenges.

Some clinical placements require the student to relocate a long way from home, where they may need to pay for accommodation and food. Add in the requirement of unpaid full-time clinical placement with no time to earn any money and you have a huge financial burden. Gus and Pranay are 2 students who have been through this process. They share their experiences and provide suggestions for how you can make the most out of these situations.
