Popis: | Introduction Simulation-based teaching is an effective instructional strategy gaining momentum in pharmacy education but remains variable across programs. This is the first known report depicting the development of a multifaceted, integrated simulation program during concurrent initiation of a new skills-based pharmacy curriculum. Methods A significant infrastructure expansion created simulation areas whose availability corresponded with the initiation of a new skills-based curriculum. Integration of simulation occurred with existing personnel resources using area pilots. Pilots developed operational and educational design standards spanning the pre-simulation, simulation, and debriefing phases. The value of high-fidelity simulation pilots detailed here was assessed through both student survey and successful transference of tools to other courses. Results The pilots developed core operational and educational design standards, super-user faculty groups, and created an operational director position, essential for simulation promulgation throughout the curriculum. In the high-fidelity patient simulation pilot, operational elements included mannequin and equipment procedures, best practices for faculty and confederate engagement, and formulary development. Educational design standards addressed objective development, session flow, team roles, and debriefing. A grading rubric template aligned goals and assessed outcomes. All elements were structured into a planning worksheet. Student survey reflected the perceived value of this pilot. Conclusions Operational support, integration coordination, and perceived value are all essential elements for successful curricular integration of simulation in a pharmacy curriculum. The pilots created the operational and educational structure establishing standards and defining required resources to sustain success. These pilots allowed for rapid curricular proliferation of simulation across the first and third professional years. |
