#18 Simulation and Leadership in Defence Healthcare Training
This week's guest is Brigadier Toby Rowland, who is an officer in the Royal Army Medical Corps and who is currently Head of Defence Healthcare Education and Training at the Ministry of Defence. Toby has worked in roles ranging from operational planning to training delivery, interagency and international engagement to resource and risk management. On his journey Toby has developed a passion for transformative action as well as how to champion new projects and enhance existing systems. Toby's approach holds in focus the strategic perspective whilst taking time to understand organisational culture and, through engagement and consultation, the people that comprise it.
Alex and Toby discuss the importance of innovation and adaptability in delivering training, the role of simulation technology and the importance of building multi-disciplinary teams with strong leaders.
To see how the Defence Medical Services use high fidelity simulation in the development of healthcare teams and systems, the following clip shows emergency response training provided by 2nd Medical Brigade to NHS teams from York and Scarborough Hospital Trusts:
