Abstract:
There are concerns that pre-registration house officers (PRHOs) lack the expertise to initially manage acutely-ill patients. Simulation can support them in this role by providing a safe yet authentic setting. This paper shares PRHOs' views of a ward simulation exercise. The positive feedback has resulted in further development of the exercise to support PRHOs who have given cause for concern in their practice.
