In this episode, Lawrence and Tony are Joined by Christine Vogel the lead nurse educator for UbiSim: a company specialising in Virtual Reality (VR) for healthcare education.  They discuss what good VR looks like, where VR sits in the different modalities of simulation education and peek into the future of what VR holds for healthcare simulation. #simcast #simulation #podcast

In this episode Lawrence and Tony are joined by Juliet Harrison an associate professor in paramedic science from the University of East Anglia.  This week's topic revolves around some of the challenges faced promoting diversity in simulation. The trio discuss both obvious issues such as skin tone in patient simulators as well as some more subtle nuances such as traditional terminology used in simulation which isn't always inclusive. A very thought provoking episode this one... #simcast #simulation #podcast 

In the Episode Juliet mentions several resources which can be found below:

- Skin Deep - A resource to address the lack of skin tone diversity of paediatric medical education images -  https://dftbskindeep.com/
- Mind the Gap - A clinical resource for signs and symptoms for people with black and brown skin - https://www.blackandbrownskin.co.uk/mindthegap

In this episode, Lawrence and Tony are Joined by Irfan and Hannah, two paramedic students who have just undertaken a peer-led Adult Life Support (ALS) simulation session. They discuss their experiences of learning and simulation at UEA, how working with different year groups provides both benefits and challenges and what they have learned from their simulation session #simcast #simulation #podcast

In this episode Lawrence and Tony are joined by David Aziz, director of placements for the Norwich Medical School. The three discuss what simulation means in the context of practice-based learning, whether simulation should replace clinical placements and how learning differs between experiences in simulation and those in clinical practice. Discussion takes a philosophical turn throughout and David also throws a curveball question to Lawrence and Tony right at the end of the episode, so keep watching for that one!

In this special episode Lawrence and Tony meet Floris Opal the lead patient simulator at the University of East Anglia. They discuss what simulation manikins get up to after hours, how different professions interact with the manikins and Floris' lofty ambitions moving forwards. #simcast #simulation #podcast

In this episode, Lawrence and Tony are joined by Lindsay Morgan and Charmaine Chandler who discuss their experiences of learning about simulaiton having recently attended the UEA Simulation Inscturctor Course.  They talk about pre-conceived ideas of simulation, what they learned and what they found most valuable about attending the course.

In this episode, Lawrence and Tony are joined by Karan Botsford who talks about her current research using the Guided Observing Learner Debrief (GOLD) Tool.  This tool has been designed to aid observers of a simulaiton event to structure a commentry around key areas of simulation activity to facilitate a richer peer led debrief experience.  They explore the rationale behind the tool, deisgn and implementation and look at some of the prelimarny data that has been gathered and discuss early findings.

In this episode Tony and Lawrence look at finding time to sim when you're a busy academic or clinician juggling multiple priorities.  They look at what problems you often encounter, areas that can be sacrificed and things that must stay and stratergies for survial to ensure we still provide a quality product.

n this episode we are joined by Dave Stewart who is a Non-Conformance and Incident Manager at an industrial packaging company.  

Dave shares his experiences of working with Tony and Lawrence who ran two in situ simulation events at Dave's company to test their responsiveness to a workplace health and safety incident.  

Following each event, Tony and Lawrence's consultancy buisness 'OnSITE insight' provided a debrief to staff alongside a follow up report of findings in an attempt to further increase workplace safety.

Episode 6 of 6

In this episode we will be discussing simulation debriefing

By the end of the episode you will be able to achieve the following learning outcomes:

- Outline the basic structure and function of a debrief.
- Differentiate between debriefing and feedback.
- Discuss various debriefing techniques.
