Module 3.

03. Simulation and Clinical Safety in Critical Patient and Emergency Management.

Clinical simulation aims to train students in teamwork and decision-making in a realistic clinical situation. In this module, students acquire a new dimension of work based on resolving crisis situations - 'Crisis Resource Management (CRM)'. Topics covered include decision-making, the concept of error, and non-technical skills such as communication, leadership, and teamwork through reflective learning, critical thinking, and advanced debriefing and facilitation techniques.
