Who we are

Simulation educator

Our roles are facilitating, guiding and motivating learners through the simulated environment.

Our journey 1997: CPR center

2011: Siriraj Training and Education Center for Clinical Skills (SiTEC)

2012: Siriraj Medical Simulation Center for Education and Training (SiMSET)

Assessment and evaluation of non-technical skills: The lesson learn

•Core concept is to improve the learners’ performance.

•Well-trained and standardization of the rater, and qualified tools are essential.

• Simulation provides an opportunity for a purposeful assessment.

• Sufficient evidence of validity in the ANTS instrument and the Ottawa GRS for the evaluation of non-technical skills in a simulated anaesthesia setting

• Both instruments differentiated the non-technical skills of PGY-1 from PGY-3 residents.

Final words:

• Simulation is a teaching method … no need to wait for a simulation center.

• The big step is to integrated simulation into the curriculum.

• The future direction of simulation must include non-technical skills training.
