Intradisciplinary Simulation as a Means to Improve Public Health Efforts to impact and influence the health of the public demand that providers demonstrate competence in a variety of areas. Since the social determinants of health (SDOH) can create barriers that negatively impact care, future healthcare providers need purposeful training on disparities, cultural issues, and health literacy (Abbasina et al., 2020; Gradellini et al., 2024). Healthcare professionals must be able to identify these barriers and work with interprofessional teams and community partners to facilitate optimal outcomes (Laari & Duma, 2023). Caring for the medically underserved communities (MUC) that have a higher burden of cardiovascular, stroke, and heart disease requires evidence-based approaches that eliminate practice silos and foster a sense of collaboration. Future healthcare providers need opportunities to learn how to navigate the complex care of these vulnerable populations which requires inter- and intra-professional collaboration. Inter/intra-professional simulation-based education (SBE) and clinical practice are needed to meet this need. To provide these educational opportunities, a project was developed to utilize, implement and test a Public Health Simulation-Infused Program (PHSIP). Scenarios and a checklist were validated with experts in public health, simulation, and telehealth to optimize strategies that may promote well-being in marginalized communities. This project offers future healthcare providers like bedside nurses, public health nurses, advanced practice nurses, and social workers opportunities to navigate the multifaceted care environment and work together to optimize patient outcomes. The program followed Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice (HSSOBP) and used a combination of technologies. A prebrief which addressed cardiovascular/stroke risks within public health nursing was sent to all learners before the SBE. Learners were challenged to assess, make clinical decisions, and teach patients by communicating and collaborating with the entire healthcare team. To facilitate learning, realism was enhanced using high-fidelity patient simulator (HFPS) manikins, telehealth technology, embedded participants, and standardized participants. During this presentation, the creation and implementation of this program will be shared. Describe opportunities for inter/intraprofessional simulation using public health concepts. Compare and contrast a public health nursing checklist with AACN competency-based education. Evaluate current curriculum for implementation opportunities of PH content

Replacing Traditional Clinical Rotations with Nursing Simulation A groundbreaking study done in the USA provided empirical evidence that substituting high-quality simulation-based experiences for up to 50% of traditional clinical hours was just as effective in providing learners with requisite knowledge and skills students would need upon graduation (Hayden, Keegan, Kardong-Edgren, & Smiley, 2014). In simulated based learning, learners work on complex problems in controlled environments that mimic real word scenarios (Lateef, 2010). Simulation-based education (SBE) is used in healthcare to facilitate students’ acquisition knowledge and skills through working with ‘ex-vivo’ patients in controlled safe learning environments without compromising the safety of real patients (Alinier & Oriot, 2022; Alinier & Platt, 2014; Aqel & Ahmad, 2014; Shin, Park & Kim, 2015). Our project replaced 25% of clinical hours in medicine and surgery with simulations in a practical nursing program. A total of 22 students and their 3 instructors participated in this project. Evidence based approach was used throughout the design and implementation of the project to make sure that learning outcomes were met without compromising the quality of students’ learning. We documented the process of instructor training, curriculum development, implementation and feedback from students, staff and instructors. The project’s main purpose was to explore ways of addressing three important issues: The modalities of simulation included medium to high-fidelity manikins (16%), standardized patients (SPs) (6%) and virtual reality (3%). EDI learning opportunities were woven into relevant scenarios. Students and instructor feedback shows that learners gained confidence, practiced skills they would not have encountered in traditional clinical, learnt the importance of critical reflective practice, collaboration, problem solving skills and resolving issues related to equity diversity and inclusion. The learnings from this project are being used to scale up the simulated based learning by replacing 50% of traditional clinical hours in continuing care for the internationally trained nurses that is currently running. The following academic year we will take these learnings and scale to over 400 students per semester at 25% replacement. Our presentation will focus on the disruption of traditional clinical students’ experiences and the relearning process of new pedagogical strategies in nurse education. We will outline the pre-implementation activities, implementation process, the outcomes of the project and what we learned as discussion the way forward. Understand how replacing clinical education rotation hours with nursing simulation as an approach can enhance clinical learning outcomes. Understand what steps were taken, logistics, and operational resources were used to execute replacing clinical hours with healthcare simulation. Apply these learnings from the presentation to the participant’s organization, to initiate or build on replacing clinical rotation hours with clinical simulation activities.

Maximizing High Fidelity Trauma Simulators in MASCAL Exercises Operations-based Mass Casualty (MASCAL) trauma simulation exercises are a common occurrence in EMS and military training. Frequently complex training operations, these MCI training exercises usually rely on role players with minimal integration of high-fidelity manikins. The reasons are many. Moulaged role players are realistic and flexible with fluid situations. Beyond that, most high-fidelity manikins are too fragile to leave the clinical training room and too complicated to operate on the fly. A drawback of role players is the challenge of performing lifesaving procedures realistically and objectively measuring care through the treatment and evacuation chain. This seminar will share MASCAL planning resources and discuss micro simulations within MASCAL events designed to truly test and measure participant performance with high fidelity human patient simulators. Learners will be introduced to the SORT methodology for planning simulations, a rapid, simple process to develop simulation pedagogy quickly and effectively Analyze MASCAL learning objectives at the macro and micro level and identify learning opportunities through medical simulation. Learn the SORT method to develop trauma simulations. Apply SORT within a larger MASCAL Scenario to create a micro-simulation against defined objectives.

Hospital at Home: Development of New Care Model for Medical Simulation About: This CE webinar will host an interprofessional panel who will discuss their collaborative effort to use medical simulation to validate workflows and identify latent safety threats before implementing a new Hospital at Home program that provides acute hospital care in a patient’s home. The interdisciplinary panel of speakers will discuss their experience of using system-focused simulation to test the quality and safety of a new and complex clinical care model, Hospital at Home, in the pre-implementation phase. Hospital at Home is an innovative care model providing hospital-level care in the patient’s home, which allows eligible patients to receive acute care and recover in the comfort of their homes. It entails many of the same care processes occurring in the brick and mortal hospital, including clinician visits, vital signs, lab and diagnostic studies, medications, auxiliary therapies, and meals. In essence, this entailed developing a new hospital system outside the hospital, inclusive of the workflows, communication patterns, information technology infrastructure and care processes. A large interdisciplinary effort was undertaken to delineate the processes and best workflows from entry into the program through discharge. Kaizen events, steering committee meetings, and patient-centered focus groups drove the creation of the standard work. Upon creation of the standard work, several tabletop simulations were conducted to confirm the appropriate processes and personnel, and identify potential system stress-points. This was then followed by “Day in The Life” (DiTL) simulations that included realistic scenarios with simulated patients and were designed to (1) validate and test – equipment, communication, procedures, and workflows and (2) discover – latent safety threats, resolutions to issues, opportunities to optimize quality of care and patient safety. Simulations encompassed the Hospital at Home process by beginning with patient eligibility and consent, the hospital stay, transitioning to home, care at home as a Hospital at Home patient and lastly discharge. Each simulation had participants in-person and via Zoom with members from the full interprofessional team (e.g., nursing, physicians, pharmacists, social workers, home nursing) and the hospital system team (e.g., IT, supply chain, pharmacy, operational excellence, simulation). Throughout the phases of the Hospital at Home program, the teams participated in focused interval debriefs centered on the SEIPS 2.0 (Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety) human factors framework. The debriefs culminated in approximately 120 opportunities for improvement that were then triaged by criticality and importance to be addressed longitudinally. Following the simulated sessions, the clinical team was equipped with valuable insights that significantly improved readiness to enroll the first patient in the Hospital at Home program. The team analyzed the outcomes, feedback, and learning points from the simulations and promptly integrated them into protocols and procedures. This involved refining the patient enrollment approach, fine-tuning equipment use, honing emergency response protocols, and enhancing interpersonal communication strategies to ensure a patient-centric approach. By learning from the simulated experiences, the team created a more robust and effective system, significantly reducing the potential for errors or mishaps. As a result, the team members were more confident in their ability to provide acute hospital-level care at home and better prepared to meet the unique needs and preferences of the first patient in the program. This iterative learning process ultimately elevated the standard of care provided, optimizing the patient experience from the get-go. Characterize the integration of simulation into a multidisciplinary effort for the development of a new clinical care model. Describe the collaborative use of simulation and operational excellence programs in the pre-implementation testing of the new Hospital at Home program. Demonstrate the impact of using the collective approaches of systems-focused simulation and operational excellence on process design and improvement, patient safety, and care delivery for new clinical models
