In this simulation, learners will encounter three patient scenarios that require adapting communication strategies. These scenarios are often experienced in the clinical setting by sonographers, and we hope to provide you with communication strategies that you can apply to similar challenging situations. The three scenarios are as follows: 1. De-escalating a frustrated patient, 2. Responding […]

In this simulation, learners will assess verbal and non-verbal aspects of patient communication throughout the patient intake, procedure explanation, medical history interview, and during the cardiac ultrasound exam. This simulation is intended to guide future sonographers in effective communication to ensure patients are informed and therefore better positioned to provide consent for the cardiac ultrasound […]

Asma Badiwe is a 27 year old female, G1P1T0A0L0 and day one post-partum. You provided care for Asma Badiwe yesterday morning. She had a spontaneous vaginal birth with no complications. Her birth history and assessments are saved in the EMR. You are starting your morning shift and assigned to Asma again. You have washed your […]

An EMS crew has been dispatched to a ski hill for a 30 y/o female injured skier with altered mental status and a head injury.

You are the nurse in the department of medicine at the Hospital Center in your region. It is 10:20 am, the emergency will transfer an 83-year-old lady, Mrs Aurore Morin,  who will be followed by Dr. Annie Castonguay (geriatrician) for investigation into the loss of autonomy and possible recent cognitive impairment.  Her daughter accompanies her.

Respond to a call to a workplace accident and perform a patient assessment, initiate treatment, and manage a mechanical ventilator.

In this simulation, you will experience several conflicts and various approaches on how the conflict can be managed. You will be guided to view several videos, then have the choice to witness two different management outcomes. You will have the ability to navigate between the conflict and outcomes with the navigation buttons.

La patiente, 79 ans, a été hospitalisée, car elle présentait une fracture de la hanche droite. Elle a subi une intervention chirurgicale il y a deux jours. La patiente a des antécédents d’hypertension,de troubles cognitif et de myopie (elle porte des lunettes). Malgré qu’elle ait reçu un diagnostique de démence légère il y a six […]

The learner simulation scenario is that an EMS crew has been dispatched to a ski hill for a 30 y/o female injured skier with altered mental status and a head injury.

The patient consulted their attending physician after experiencing an episode of fatigue, and then required blood tests. You have just begun your shift at the blood sample laboratory and the patient comes to see you for a venipuncture.

This simulation has been designed to focus on opportunities for learning. During the game, you will take on the role of Karley, a newly graduated sonographer. Embedded in your interaction with an obstetrical patient, will be a selection of 3 potential responses or decision points. How you respond will determine how your interaction unfolds. You […]

This scenario is intended for you to utilize your leadership and communication skills. The focus of this scenario is to learn how to effectively manage a scene and communicate with supervisors and members of the fire department.

This simulation will be examining the hours leading up to a Medical Assistance in Dying procedure within an acute care setting. Within the scenario, you will be playing the role of the nurse (Julie) and working with your patient Anna, and her family.

This simulation will be examining geriatric suicide awareness and assessment. Within the scenario, you will be playing the role of the nurse (Jack) and working with your patient Wei Ing.

This simulation is intended to help you develop fundamental skills and confidence when communicating with a pediatric patient. The scenario will allow you to make critical decisions about appropriate communication when interacting with a pediatric patient.

Identify a patient requiring basic life support, perform high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and collaborate with the health care team.

Identify the changing health condition of a patient who has undergone a nephrectomy and provide appropriate care.

Interventional radiology: a port insertion for chemotherapy treatment

This simulation has been developed for intermediate-level Paramedic students to develop the competencies required to attend an out-of-hospital breech delivery. The goal of the simulation is to gain confidence in conducting assessments and obtaining an accurate obstetrical history that will guide patient management.

Care for a pediatric patient who crashed their bike and is transported to the emergency department for further resuscitation. This scenario is designed for Paramedics, Respiratory Therapists, and Nurses.

Nicole Harper (32 years old) has brought their five-year-old, Summer, to for a pre-op assessment at the Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) clinic at the Children’s Hospital

Pediatric patient at home in respiratory distress. Paramedics will be dispatched, arrive on the scene and transport patient to the hospital. In hospital, paramedics will give report to an RN and RT. RT will provide medication (puffer) education to patient and caregiver to support disease management.

This scenario will help users recognize suicidal risk factors in those who are most vulnerable. Throughout the simulation you will be given opportunities to observe the patient environment, process how you would like to respond, identify suicidal risk factors, and reflect on what you have learned.

A two-part scenario, designed for an interprofessional group of clinical externs, this was made to meet two of the learning goals they had requested: high flow and palliation. Patient is sick and while initially responding to treatment, a time warp in the scenario allowed us to also fit in palliation in the same education session.
