Ep#3 The pivot of simulation based education
The pivot of simulation based education. Episode 3 In this episode we take some time to share stories and reflect on how we all had to pivot in our clinical simulation based education roles in 2021. How and why did we do this? It is still relevant today as we all struggle to continue to prioritise education in the current healthcare climate. We talk about work imagined vs. work done in policy writing and how simulation can be a tool to explore this.

Ep# 2 - Dr Peter Weinstock gets asked the big questions by SimNurseNZ
In this episode we are incredibly lucky to interview one of the international “gurus of simulation” Dr Peter Weinstock. Episode 2 Dr Weinstock is the Executive Program Director, Immersive Design Systems (formally SIMPeds); Anesthesia Endowed Chair in Pediatric Simulation; Senior Associate, Critical Care Medicine & Associate Professor, Harvard Medical School. Peter has been a pivotal international link for the Douglas Starship Simulation Programme and has been key in growing our team to what it is today. In this episode we explore healthcare simulation with Peter and hear stories from his experience of how clinical simulation has evolved over time. We discuss his foundational article “Sim Zones” which we discussed in episode one. Linked below. https://journals.lww.com/academicmedicine/Fulltext/2017/08000/SimZones__An_Organizational_Innovation_for.29.aspx This episode also explores how to stay up to date with current developments in healthcare simulation and also predictions of innovations and where the future of simulation is heading. We talk about effect driving the technology and also how to utilise design thinking. This episode also explores how clinical simulation staff are incredibly skilled at debriefing and have true assets in emotional intelligence especially empathy. Peter also discusses adjacencies that healthcare simulation has to other professions such as behavioural psychology and biometrics. The future of healthcare simulation should be to align and connect with these specialities to cross pollinate expertise and deepen learning.

SimZones by Roussin & Weinstock (2017) Journal club & who are is SimNurseNZ? Episode 1 In this episode you will get to know the “ultimate tripod” of healthcare simulation nurse educators from the Douglas Starship Simulation Programme. They are: Erin Carn-Bennett, Marie Collinson & Alison Cartwright. What are our backgrounds? Who used to be a volunteer firefighter? Who was just jealous of setting up the simulations behind the scenes and so badgered till they could join in? Who was it that has a background in hatching to dispatching nursing and what does that even mean? This is a multidisciplinary podcast and although through the nursing lens all clinicians are welcome and there is something for everyone to take away. We also have Doctors as guests. Once you have got to know us a little better we will talk to you about the Sim Zones article by Roussin and Weinstock (2017) and the impact it has had on our programme when us 3 started in our roles in 2019. You can find the article here: https://journals.lww.com/academicmedicine/Fulltext/2017/08000/SimZones__An_Organizational_Innovation_for.29.aspx We talk about the three sim zones and break each down into how we utilize it within our clinical simulation programmes as well as what debriefing methodology we use for each.We talk about debriefing real life events and here is the link to the ACE (after critical event) review we use in our organisation which is freely available. https://starship.org.nz/guidelines/ace-review-after-critical-event/ Please email us at Starshipsim@adhb.govt.nz or DM us on Twitter to get your copy of our zone 1 and zone 2 debriefing card.
