Description
SPRINGER Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation Implementing Best Practices In Standardized Patient Methodology by Gayle Gliva-McConvey Catherine F. Nicholas Lou Clark
This book brings to life best practices of Human Simulation; maximizing the Standardized Patient (SP) methodology that has played a major role in health professions learning and assessment since the 1960s. Each chapter reflects the Association of SP Educators Standards of Best Practices (SOBPs) and provides guidance for implementation. Multiple insights are offered through embedded interviews with international experts to provide examples illustrating successful strategies.
The Human Simulation Continuum Model a practical and theoretical framework is introduced to guide educators in decision-making processes associated with the full range of human simulation. The Continuum Model spans improvisations structured role-play embedded participants and simulated-standardized patients. This book also provides the full "how-to" for SP methodology covering topics including; case/scenario development creating training material training techniques for case portrayal training communication and feedback skills GTA/MUTA/PTA training SP program administration and professional development for SP Educators.
A pragmatic user-friendly addition to the Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation series Implementing Best Practices in Standardized Patient Methodology is the first book framed by the ASPE SOBPs embracing best practices in human simulation and marshaling the vast expertise of a myriad of SP Educators.
