  • Developing a competency framework for training with simulations in healthcare: a qualitative study [Elektronski vir]
    Zafošnik, Uroš ...
    Background Simulation is a technique used to create an experience without going through the real event. Competency-based medical education focuses on outcomes and ensures professionals have the ... necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The purpose of this study was to develop a set of competencies for the instructors providing basic and advanced levels of simulation-based training in healthcare. Methods We conducted a qualitative study in three steps, with each next step building on and influenced by the previous one. First, we conducted a literature review, then a consensus development panel, and finally a three-step Delphi process. The participants were experts in the fields of healthcare, education, and simulations. Results The six main competencies identified for the instructor providing simulation-based training at the basic level in healthcare include knowledge of simulation training, education/training development, education/training performance, human factors, ethics in simulation, and assessment. An instructor providing simulation-based training at an advanced level in healthcare should also possess the following five competencies: policies and procedures, organisation and coordination, research, quality improvement, and crisis management. Conclusion The identified competencies can serve as a valuable resource for simulation educators and organisations involved in simulation education, to plan curriculum and implement a continuous train-the-trainers programme.
