SimCast

In the second episode of our three-part SimCast mini-series with Maudsley Learning, Tony and Lawrence are joined by Camilla Fadel and Gareth Evans to explore how Maudsley Learning designs, adapts and delivers mental health simulation across healthcare, social care, universities, charities, corporate organisations and international partners.

This episode focuses on the practical work behind authentic mental health simulation. Camilla and Gareth discuss co-production, lived experience, trauma-informed design, inclusive practice, actor preparation, scenario manuals, psychological safety, technical creativity and the importance of adapting simulation to the learner group in real time. The conversation also explores how Maudsley Learning balances realism with care, avoids stereotyping, uses rich character histories rather than rigid scripts, and creates reflective learning spaces for complex, emotionally charged topics.
