Why simulation?

• realistic preparation for
• rare and difficult patients
• errors allowed
• no patients can be hurt
• repetition possible

Simulation an important tool for patient safety
Patient Safety
Use Simulations Whenever Possible ...Crew
resource management techniques, combined with
simulation, have substantially improved aviation
safety and can be modified for health care use.

Train in Teams Those Who Are Expected to Work in
Teams ...health care organizations should
establish team training programs for personnel in
critical care areas (e.g. the emergency
department, intensive care unit, operating room)
using proven methods such as the crew resource
management techniques employed in aviation,
including simulation.
