Last week, we had the privilege of attending Association Forum's Holiday Showcase 2024 where we were able to gain valuable insights from the variety of educational sessions and build impactful connections with colleagues from other associations.   One of the highlights was hearing Adam Smiley Poswolsky speak on the power of belonging and human connection. His perspectives energized us to bring new ideas to our work and emphasized the importance of creating interactive moments and a care mindset.   Thank you to all the professionals who shared their expertise. We look forward to connecting even more with our members in 2025!   #AAPSimulation #AAP #Simulation #HolidayShowcase2024 #AssociationForum

We are excited to continue the "Simulationist Spotlight" series, where we highlight leading experts in healthcare simulation. Each spotlight will dive into their insights on one key question: "What makes simulation an effective teaching tool?" This month, we feature Dr. Amy Joseph, a Pediatric Critical Care Fellow at Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital. Read on to discover her perspective! Dr. Joseph: “Simulation creates a safe learning space with less pressure than sometimes seeing a scenario with a real patient. I think this is such an important place to learn and then be able to take those skills to the bedside. I think the other advantage of simulation is that you can practice with multidisciplinary teams and really figure out the best way to do something and take the time to do so. There are so many different applications for simulation!” #AAPSimulation #Simulation #SoSILM #HealthcareSimulation #InnovativeLearning

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Halloween! If you are near our lab, beware... you may just stumble upon a few "unusual" patients!   #HappyHalloween #AAPSimulation #Simulation
