    Future Programs 

    The RCH Simulation Team is aiming to provide a refresher debriefing course for participants who have completed the Simulation Train the Train Program and are looking to advance their skills in debriefing.  

    VEMS (Visually Enhanced Mental Simulation)

    The RCH Simulation Team are facilitating education sessions on how to run a VEMS (Visually Enhanced Mental Simulation) sessions. VEMS can be used for communication or deteriorating patient training, and/or running through guidelines and protocols etc. This simulation education modality is easily facilitated by educators in their department and has been used to good effect where lots of time, space, and/or equipment, are not available.
