Are you in Simulation Operations and do not know what SOTS is? Well take a listed to this episode. Even if your not in operations, you should be a part to make all of us better at what we do.

Ep 32 was a delight to record. We were fortunate enough to have on Past President of the SSH, Juli Maxworthy, as well as Incoming President Jayne Smitten! This is another episode that was recorded LIVE of the show floor of #IMSH2023. 

We talked about a number of great topics, but they all centered around the importance of finding and having a mentor. You are not alone, so get out there and find they support you need. We are all behind you!

With Love, 

This week's episode is a special one. You may have heard about the SSH Fund and wondered about it. You may even think you know what it's for, but Jennifer Calzada is here to let you know about this awesome program and why it is so important. So important that both of the SimGeek's have donated!

This is a very worthy cause that you should know about for sure. Let's hear it from Jennifer herself! https://www.ssih.org/About-SSH/Development

Welcome back to another interview, recorded live from the show floor of #imsh2023. This time we have Matt Merino, the new CEO of Education Management Solutions (EMS) talking about his vision of "Bringing it all together" for the future of Healthcare Simulation. If you were at IMSH  @SimulationSociety  you know they had a strong showing of amazing tech that was from many of their partners. Mr. Merino talks about that, the importance of vendors at IMSH, and his vision for the future. So take a few and listen to this engaging talk. -SimGeeks

We take some time to talk to Dr. Ryan Ribeira who is the outgoing chair of the SSH Corporate Round Table. What is the corporate round table, first off, there are no knights involved. Sad right? What the corporate round table is, is a place where vendors can interact with SSH, and have a two-way dialog about what the future of healthcare looks like, and what are the needs of all of us are in the future. It’s our voice to vendors, and vendors' toys, through the society. Dr. Ribeira also talks about the importance of networking, SimVentors Showcase@ IMSH, what is was like to found Sim X and much more. So take a listen to a great guy, and enjoy.

Orienting a new hire is always a challenge. With the varying topics required to be an SOS, where do you even start? How do you do this while maintaining operations? It's not as difficult as you would think as long as you plan ahead. 

Take a listen and don't forget to send in your questions and comments!

Will and I have been so busy, that a little time has passed us by.... BUT WE ARE BACK!

This week we invited Deb Tauber to talk about her Sim podcast, "The Sim Cafe" as well as her company "Innovative Sim Solutions"

https://innovativesimsolutions.com/podcasts

https://innovativesimsolutions.com/

What she is mainly here to talk about is the difficult topic of End of Life situations and how to do a simulation to educate and prepare providers for this eventual situation we all go through. She has experience with both the situation and running simulations so we are so glad she was able to come in and talk with us. Give it a listen and let us know what you think with comments both here and on any of our social media profiles. 

As always, thank you for listening.
