Impact of a Program Using High-Fidelity Clinical Simulation to Train Health Professionals in the Care and Detection...

Most victims of trafficking for sexual exploitation primarily seek assistance through health care services. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of high-fidelity clinical simulation training on the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of a multidisciplinary group in relation to the identification of victims of human trafficking for sexual exploitation. To achieve this goal, a quasi-experimental pre-post study without a control group was designed to assess a training program centered around high-fidelity clinical simulation. The inclusion of high-fidelity clinical simulation was found to enhance protocols for the identification and management of victims of trafficking for sexual exploitation.
