Foundation Simulation Workshop

Our Aims for Today:To provide an overview of the simulation experiences provided for Foundation doctors across KSS and London

To consider the obstacles to growth and opportunities for enhancing Foundation simulation across KSS and London

To further develop the effectiveness of simulation for Foundation doctors

Simulation and Foundation

UKFPO Foundation Curriculum 2007– Education and Assessment

Simulation training should be fully exploited.

CMO Annual Report 2008section- ‘Safer Medical Practice: Machines, Manikins and Polo Mints’

– highlighted the need to formally integrate simulation and human-factors training into medical education and practice.

Simulation and Foundation

Simulation TrainingAll Foundation Doctors based at London or KSS Deanery Trusts have access to simulation training

FY1 sign-off requirement

FY2 within KSS limited access

STeLI Simulation Technology-enhanced Learning Initiative

Excellence in Education strategy• London Deanery and NHS London

STeLI and STFS

FY1 & FY2 in London based STFS Trusts have access to simulation training days

Foundation Faculty and Simulation Faculty within these Trusts have funded places on Faculty Development course run by STeLI

Infrastructure investment

STFS keen to develop a more integrated simulation strategy across London and KSS Deaneries

KSS Deanery Simulation

KSS Overview

Rapid growth in numbers:

2007-2008: 120

2008-2009: 300

2009-2010: 491 *

*NB Added to sign off for ALL trainees in 2009-2010, so provision allocated for 520 places, as safety net needed

KSS Deanery Simulation

KSS Overview

• 7 of our 11 NHS Trusts have now developed local provision for FY1

• 8 potential hospitals have yet to develop local simulation for FY1

• Two NHS Trusts providing ‘partnership’ simulation for FY1s: Brighton and Royal Surrey County

• Only 3 KSS NHS Trusts now using London specialist centre provision

KSS Deanery Simulation

KSS OverviewTargets:• To expand simulation

provision into FY2• To ensure all NHS Trusts

have at least one clinical skills facility

• To expand simulation provision within core and specialty training

KSS Deanery Simulation

Vision: All Foundation Year 1 trainees will

receive at least one experience of high-fidelity simulation within their placement at their local education provider NHS Trust. This will be delivered by local faculty released formally from service delivery and the experience quality-assured by the Deanery with a visiting team drawn from the community of practice across the KSS region operationalising national and KSS quality standards.

KSS Deanery Simulation

Current initiatives:• Big capital investment (£756,895)

investment in 2009 bidding round • Recent initiation of Quality Support

and Development visits to NHS Trusts

• Simulation steering group now established (five colleagues)

• Simulation Special Interest Group (SIG) being developed

• Appointment of speciality champions to further develop simulation

STFS Simulation ProvisionOvercoming Barriers

Please discuss the following points and respond to the area allocated to your group:

1.Obstacles to growing/improving simulation in NHS Trusts (all groups)

2. Opportunities for enhancing simulation experience

Group

a. Introducing FY1s to the simulation experience

b. Developing effective scenarios for Foundation doctors

c. Developing active and participatory watching

d. Moving from ‘debriefing’ to ‘professional conversations’

STFS Foundation Simulation Seminar Day
