Getting Started in Simulation

Welcome all students, residents, fellows, and all others looking to get started in the world of healthcare simulation! At this stage of your training, you’ve likely already participated in a simulation for educational purposes. But did you know that you can create and publish your own simulations (and that this is one fun way to satisfy a scholarly activity requirement)? Well, chances are, if you got to this webpage, you probably did know that but maybe didn’t know where and how to get started.

It’s true–getting your feet wet in simulation can be challenging without assistance from an experienced simulationist or simulation center. As a result, AAEM/RSA has developed a repository of resources for interested members looking to create case-based simulations. We hope you enjoy the guide!
