Advancing Healthcare Through Simulation

In this episode of Advancing Healthcare Through Simulation, Stacie Wood and Alex Martins of Elevate Healthcare share how cutting-edge simulation tools, smart curriculum design, and interdisciplinary collaboration are transforming clinical training across Canada.

We explore:
  • The biggest trends in simulation-based education, including AI, remote learning, and cloud-based tools
  • How simulation is evolving to support real-world readiness, workforce retention, and patient safety
  • The importance of realism, accessibility, and psychological safety in simulation design
  • How to match simulation modalities with educational goals—because high tech isn’t always the best tech
  • Best practices for debriefing, emotional safety, and building trust in high-stakes training
  • The role of simulation in addressing the “know-do” gap in clinical learning
  • What to expect from the Advancing Healthcare Through Simulation Provincial Summit on May 7
