“What a strong leader! I've known KT for several years, almost all of it while we were both focused on growing and leading the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH). I am a big fan! KT is an extremely talented leader; I have watched her create consensus among strong-willed, diverse thinkers, carefully and adeptly navigating egos, passions, and agendas with altruistic focus and intent. The initiatives that she started (and completed) at SSH continued the organization's path to becoming even more impactful. She helped establish and mature the SSH Women in Leadership symposium, an event focused on cultivating leaders within the healthcare simulation arena. She reached out to other international healthcare simulation societies, reestablishing strong ties with these partner organizations - ties that were essential during the COVID pandemic. KT laid a strong foundation of fiscal responsibility and focus on our core capabilities that made it easier for the Society to transition to virtual presence during my year as SSH President in 2020. I hope to work with KT again in the future, as I know any and all endeavors with her will be fun, productive, important, and worthy of the effort.”

Sustaining a Statewide Simulation Alliance
Clinical Simulation in Nursing
A central component of successful simulation alliances is planning for sustainability. Consistent long-term funding provides predictable resources with which to conduct operations, develop simulation assets, identify best practices, and advocate for the expert use of simulation in healthcare education and practice. However, little has been published on revenue models for simulation alliances. The purpose of this report is to describe the sustainability plan for the California Simulation…

Aligning Healthcare Safety and Quality Competencies: Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN), The Joint Commission, and American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) Magnet® Standards Crosswalk

There is little to no improvement in the quality of patient care since the publication of To Err is Human report in 1999 by the Institute of Medicine (IOM).1 Healthcare provider education must address quality and patient safety language in order to meet the demands of the 21st century.2 Academic institutions focus on the quality and safety language as outlined by the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN). Conversely, hospitals emphasize competencies and standards as outlined in The Joint Commission (TJC) accreditation standards and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) Magnet® competencies. Nurse leaders need a crosswalk among all three standards that can help guide their practice. The crosswalk can help nurse leaders have an increased understanding of the role that QSEN plays in educating a competent and safe nursing workforce.

Healthcare Simulation Program Builder: Easy Tools to Build and Enhance Your Staff Training
HCPro
Simulation is widely recognized as an efficient and effective way to help new nurses build the skills they need to become confident and competent practitioners. But many organizations think simulation training is out of their reach because they cannot afford the astronomically expensive simulation technology and labs with all the bells and whistles.

But many organizations think simulation training is out of their reach because they cannot afford the astronomically expensive simulation technology and labs with all the bells and whistles.
Healthcare Simulation Program Builder helps healthcare professionals who want to use simulation to improve orientation and preceptorships, build nurse competency, enhance nurse residency programs, and strengthen interprofessional communication across the entire healthcare team.
This first-of-its-kind book assists those who want to begin using simulation for training, but don't know where to start. It discusses the theory around simulation, when to use different modalities, how to get buy-in, and how to measure results. It is the perfect curriculum builder and contains all the tools and templates you need to get started so you don't have to create them yourself!
This book will:
- Explain the types of simulation, its educational principles, simulation technology, and the skills needed to launch a successful program
- Provide sample resources, including job descriptions, scenario templates, and video release forms
- Include examples from organizations around the country that are successfully using simulationOther authors -
