Abstract

Simulation-based techniques can be utilised in the Emergency Department for an assortment of purposes including; Team-based training (learner-centred), departmental infrastructure planning (design thinking informed) and systems & process testing.

Simulation has been used to demonstrate and improve process elements of hyper-acute stroke care in terms of improvement in door-to-needle times for thrombolysis as part of sustained efforts to improve the stroke patients’ journey through healthcare systems.1-5

Due to a variety of reasons (box 1) a change in the way the service provided by the acute stroke team at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary (ARI) (box 2) was proposed, by introducing telethrombolysis in the out-of-hours period.

Service changes across departments can lead to inter-departmental conflict and as such a series of simulation-based exercises were proposed to identify and test issues that may arise out of this development.

In this report we describe how multi-perspective simulation-based education was used to bring together a ‘meeting of minds'.
