Brief Description of Duties:

The Simulation Education Coordinator will be responsible for working with the Center Director, Faculty, & Staff to develop simulation activities to meet the specific needs of a variety of learners. In collaboration with faculty, they will assist in teaching and feedback using simulation-based approaches such as high-fidelity manikins, task trainers, and standardized patients. The incumbent will be responsible for the development/revision of simulation case materials, evaluation of the simulation activity and the debriefing of the participants. This employee will also be directly involved with training standardized patients for their roles in teaching and assessment activities in the CSC. This position requires excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal skills as well as the ability to multitask by working independently on self-managed tasks, as well as part of a team to deadlines in a fast-paced learning environment.

• Make recommendations to improve simulation activity based on the review of the event and participants/faculty/CSC staff feedback. If needed, revise case materials to ensure they meet educational needs of the program/course.
• Will also be involved in debriefing following high fidelity simulations.

Supervision/Administration:

• Serve as a resource for CSC staff in the preparation/coordination of simulation activities.
• Assist in appropriate selection of SPs for cases and provide feedback on performances and remediation of standardized patients as needed under the guidance of the Director.
• Coordinate with CSC staff to execute simulation activities. - Assist in the maintenance of clinical case scenario databases and files.
