SIM Resources
Welcome to the KSS Paediatrics Simulation Hub
Simulation is an excellent way to learn in a safe, controlled environment. Here you will find a collection of resources for running simulation scenarios in your hospitals.
Flexible Scenarios
Designed for use in any setting, from a high-tech sim lab to an in-situ environment with basic equipment like a pillow and towels.
Comprehensive Content
Each resource includes a rundown of the condition, its importance, and suggested curriculum areas it applies to.
Guided Structure
Scenarios provide a basic structure and flow with 'expected actions' to guide the simulation, while still allowing for flexibility and interpretation.
Contribute a Scenario
