At Queen’s, education colleagues within the Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Sciences have been working hard to adapt and enhance their teaching of healthcare students in such unprecedented times. Simulation based education has been pivotal in equipping our students for working in the NHS. Educators in the MHLS faculty have had to reconfigure how they provide such simulation-based education, whilst maintaining the highest standards of teaching, and social distancing.
The Queen’s Simulation Centre will be one of the few in the UK to truly champion simulation based education with an interprofessional approach. Medical, Nursing and Midwifery, Dentistry and Pharmacy students will train together in interactive scenarios that closely replicate the clinical setting. This will build on the University’s experience and expertise to transform training and ultimately enhance the effectiveness and safety of patient care.
