This month Ben and Vic discuss articles about engaging with children, parents and caregivers in healthcare simulation - as educators, as simulated patients and as learners in sim. 

Ben shares his own experience in  partnering with consumers , and of others in developing “paediatric patient-focused and family-focused simulations” 

Vic reviews a qualitative exploratory analysis of simulation educators perspectives in working with Child and adolescent simulated patients (CASPs), and the experience of the Boston Children’s hospital in their Ready, Sim Go: an adapted simulation service line for patients and care givers. 

Next month – we’re talking all things video, specifically - Video Supported Feedback of Actual Resuscitations.
