    Journal Article

    The recent validation of three Diagnostic Radiography programmes in the south of England involved a rigorous approval process with multiple Professional and Statutory Regulatory Bodies (PSRB's). Part of the validation process was evidencing that approximately 50% of each programme is spent undertaking practice-based learning. As well as clinical placements, practice-based learning includes simulation-based education (SBE). From May 2022 to June 2022, a questionnaire was sent to all 22 simulation education facilitators from health courses belonging to the University School Simulation Group. Ethical approval was reviewed and approved by the Learning and Teaching Hub Research Ethics Panel. Of the initial 22 participants invited, the response rate was 59% (13 participants). The main themes arising from the analysis was the use of a theoretical or conceptual framework, a breakdown of the simulation session components and the role of simulation training. This questionnaire study demonstrated that there was a need for a standardised guide on how to deliver SBE. There is also a lack of feedback, training, and reassurance for facilitators. However, facilitators would welcome training or further training and HEE and the University have taken steps to prioritise SBE. The study highlighted how health professionals are delivering SBE within their subjects in innovative and creative ways. These ideas have helped to structure SBE within the new diagnostic radiography courses at the University.
