Simulation educators should embody ethical integrity, reflection, and psychological safety beyond the simulation room. This professional identity, the "simulosophist," requires individual, institutional, and disciplinary action for consistent practice.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare simulation
- Medical education
- Professional ethics
Background:
- Simulation educators foster psychological safety and reflection in training but often fail to apply these values in broader professional settings.
- Existing standards and codes of ethics for simulation primarily address conduct within educational activities, not wider workplace cultures.
- Simulation practitioners often hold multiple roles (clinician, educator, leader), creating tensions between espoused values and organizational hierarchies.
