Abstract:
This article summarizes experiences to date with building and deploying a clinical simulator that medical students use as part of a 3rd year primary care rotation. The simulated microworld helps students and health care professionals gain experience with and learn meta-cognitive skills for the care of complex patient populations that require treatment in the biopsychosocial-value dimensions. We explain lessons learned and next steps resulting from use of the program by over 300 users to date.
