This preconference workshop has been co-designed with colleagues from the

Chartered Institute for Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF). The aim is

to discuss and enhance the integration of Human Factors and Ergonomics (HFE)

methodologies within health care education and practice. The programme will feature

different health care case studies presented by subject experts in order to enable

participants to discuss the HFE techniques in more depth and gain an appreciation of

the potential application of HFE across a range of health care contexts and purposes.

The workshop is one of a series of events being scheduled by ASPiH with CIEHF, each

featuring different case studies as examples of HFE practice. We hope to publish a

summary paper in early 2017 that will feature all selected case studies for wider

circulation to delegates as well as policy makers, regulators, commissioners, and

professional bodies in healthcare.

Main Conference Workshops

SPECIAL

WORKSHOP

A model for a simulation hackathon. Health Education England

Healthcare and simulation hackathons are designed to improve professionals’ learning and patient care by inviting technology creators and

professionals to collaborate on realistic, innovative, patient-centred solutions to front-line problems. These are intense, focused, hands-on

events that are also fun and typically go over 48 hours. In a simulation hackathon, teams would consist of developers, designers, engineers

and healthcare professionals and may include investors, entrepreneurs, start-up experts and patient representatives. This session will enable

participants to understand what a hackathon is and how that model could be applied to simulation. The benefits and challenges in running a

simulation hackathon will be outlined and techniques shown for evaluating patient and/or learning benefits.

1 How to start up and run an in situ

simulation program in theatres

Lisa Penney/ Peter Isherwood/

Toni McCormack

The session is will showcase the absolute importance of simulation acute clinical settings. Showing the improvement in staff confidence and

learning of the importance of human factors in an in-situ theatre department, one of the largest in the Country.

Expanding Simulation on a Shoestring

As most of us involved in the delivery of simulation based education (SBE) have found, in recent times the changes to both undergraduate and

postgraduate curricula, will now often outstrip the current capacity and which can lead to a potential situation where important SBE sessions

are not being undertaken. This was certainly the case in the Aberdeen University Clinical Skills Centre, where trying to meet requests for more

simulation for medical students coupled with our NHS colleagues wanting to develop SBE for their trainees we have been struggling to meet

this increased demand.

However, after negotiations with the local NHS Trust a “live” but currently “not in use” ward was identified as a potential area, in which SBE as

well as general staff training could be held. The one caveat was that it was for a limited time (6 months) only. In this workshop we will discuss

and demonstrate how in a very short period of time we were able to turn a currently unused ward space into a fully functioning

simulation/training area on a minimal budget. More importantly we will share with attendees, that what the use of this ward space has allowed

us to do is something our normal simulation centre does not. Which is to provide the most realistic of environments in which to suspend

disbelief in simulation.

Point of care simulation in a hospital

admission unit to improve care of the

deteriorating patient

Mike Forster

Point-Of-Care Simulation has increased in popularity and is a powerful technique to train clinical staff in the “high fidelity” space of their own

working environment. In addition to the staff education in both technical and non-technical areas, it identifies latent errors and problems

related to the system ergonomics of a healthcare environment1. Point Of Care Simulation improves the detection and escalation of abnormal

observations in unwell patients through education, (including non-technical skills and team training) and to improve staff vigilance and

awareness of error.

4 Using social media to enhance learning

opportunities in health care Liz Mossop/ Chris Gay New innovations and potential utility of social media platforms to enhance learning outcomes will be demonstrated and explored "live".

5 Exploring key principles of physiology

using the human patient simulator

Dr Richard Helyer University of

Bristol

(University of Bristol) have adopted high-fidelity human patient simulation in teaching key principles of physiology critical in the understanding

of normal body function, the basis of disease, and later safe practice, to students studying medicine and biomedical sciences. Here the

simulator is used as a modelled human subject rather than a patient to be treated. This workshop will demonstrate how simulation can be used

to explore and shed light on underlying physiological principles sometimes considered to be difficult and obscure by some learners. We will

demonstrate this using a haemorrhage scenario, but rather than treating the patient, we will use data produced to demonstrate the underlying

homeostatic mechanisms involved in the response to a reduction in blood volume e.g. changes in cardiovascular parameters such as peripheral

resistance and the action of Starling’s Law of the heart. Participants will interact by observing changes in phys iological parameters and, using

student worksheets, analyse data and explore physiological mechanisms by plotting graphs.

Developing an human factors framework

for identifying patient safety system

hazards with In Situ simulation

Dr Nick Woodier, Prof Bryn

Baxendale Trent Simulation and

Clinical Skills Centre, Nottingham

University Hospitals

In healthcare, simulation has historically been used as an educational tool to enhance development of proficiency in different clinical and

technical skills with additional focus on individuals’ non-technical skills and team-based behaviours. The need to address quality, safety,

productivity and efficiency in healthcare systems has highlighted the importance of Human Factors & Ergonomics in designing safe clinical

systems, which consequently requires better understanding and qualification of the potential benefits of simulation in the interplay between

systems, processes and human performance. This provides a useful opportunity to benefit from in situ simulation exercises that can be

designed to assess critical aspects of system efficacy. Outcomes from such exercises can highlight system strengths or deficiencies that might

weaken reliability and resilience at a local level. Equally, changes in policy, new technologies, and changes to practices can be tested in

realistic contexts prior to wider implementation.

Maudsley Simulation has developed numerous courses looking at mental health and mental health’s interaction with physical health. Since the

use of actors has been crucial to the development and success of this course, the faculty at Maudsley Simulation have practiced and honed their

processes of using actors in simulation. This varies from the writing of scenarios, to the training of actors in-house, to use of actor reflection

and feedback during training, and the wider development and investment in an ‘actor faculty’. As such we feel adequately placed to outline our

practice in the hope to shared lessons and experience with delegates, as well as understand and exploring how actors can be used most

effectively in simulation. We intend to use interactive group work and videos to outline our experiences and engage delegates.

Major Incident Simulations in Live

Clinical Areas: Challenges and

Opportunities".

Dr Amit Mishra Brighton and Sussex

University Hospital

Simulation provides an excellent opportunity to evaluate the responses of the system and the individuals in the face of real -life crisis. Major

incident simulations have been carried out by various emergency services to practice and evaluate their preparedness. However, there is

hardly any published literature about such exercises in 'live' clinical areas. We were asked to run major incident simulations in a live

paediatric theatre to test the resilience of the system and individuals to cope with a real life crisis. We picked up 2 scenarios for the exercises:

Fire and Power Failure. While we were conversant with running simulations in the simulation centres as well as in situ simulations, running a

major incident exercise in a live operating theatre environment presented new challenges.

environment. An awareness of these challenges and careful and meticulous planning is essential to a successful outcome and wi ll be explored

12 PrOPS© - enhancing role portrayal using

performing arts pedagogy

Jodie Gibson, Leah Greene, Suzanne

Gough

Manchester Metropolitan University

This interactive workshop, hosted by the ‘Simulated Patient Programme’ project team from Manchester Metropolitan University will outline the

principles of The PrOPS Process©, which has been developed by blending performing arts pedagogies to enhance characterisation and role

portrayal for non-arts professionals. Examples will be explored utilising Process Drama techniques, for example, thought-tracking, emotional

memory, still images and flash forward/flash back. The principles of training SPs to enhance performance and characterisation will be

discussed, and The PrOPS Process© four-stages of SP development: Profile building, Objective-setting, Physicality and Speech modification will

be demonstrated. Participants will be encouraged to take part in activities and techniques. SP role profiles and ‘tips and tr icks’ to embed the

‘person’ at the heart of simulation-based education will be considered. The session will conclude with the opportunity to discuss and reflect on

personal experiences, with a view to developing future modifications in participants’ own practice using the structured SP Common Framework

and Checklist (Gough et al. 2015) for guidance.

14 A Toolkit to develop your Evaluation

practice

Dr Thomas Simpson

King's College London

We have been commissioned by Health Education England to develop a toolkit to support the evaluation of training/interventions in medical

education. Many people working in medical education spend significant time developing their training content but struggle with developing

impactful and insightful evaluation. We are developing a toolkit-based approach to assist educators in developing evaluation approaches

which suit their work and provide the information they require to report to funders, prepare for publication or refine their intervention. We

hope to share this toolkit with attendees to our workshop.

An innovative learning programme

designed for young people at risk of

social disadvantage

Marylyn Emedo

King's College NHS Foundation Trust

Hands Up for Health (HUfH) is an innovative learning programme designed for young people at risk of social disadvantage. It uses experiential

simulation activities set in a healthcare context and facilitated by inter-professional healthcare faculty, to engage young people in health

issues with which they can identify. It has run successfully at Guy’s and St Thomas NHS foundation trust for the past 5 years , and following a

grant from Health Education England, it has more recently been shared with neighbouring trusts; south London and Maudsley and Kings College

Hospital NHS foundation trust. Through a description of the dissemination process for HUfH, attendees we will interactively explore challenges

and processes involved in sharing an established simulation course with other centres. We will critically evaluate which characteristics of a

local simulation programme make them most “ripe” for being shared beyond their parent institution, and the benefits of doing so. We will also

discuss strategies for mitigating any associated challenges and address factors which may influence the sustainability of such a project.

16 Transforming Patient Safety: Dementia

Simulation Training Masterclass

Clair Merriman,

Rozz McDonald,

Tamzin Heatley

Oxford Brookes University

The population of people who develop Dementia is growing as is the commitment to providing timely and appropriate responses as evidenced

by the Government led 'Dementia Challenge'. Much attention has been drawn to the skills and capabilities of the Health and Social Care

workforce and care environments, which are rarely geared to be 'dementia friendly'. This masterclass will describe a simulated dementia

training day geared towards nurses and allied health professionals which incorporates experiential learning and simulation wi th a patient

actor towards exploring the issues for both qualified and unqualified staff. Methods and outcomes are discussed alongside barriers and

facilitators for others considering these methods. Participants will contribute by describing, simulating and analysing their typical responses in

a range of scenarios that are common for people with dementia. These include issues around the behavioural and psychological symptoms of

dementia (BPSD), and receptive/expressive language difficulties. Throughout the scenarios, small ‘teaching’ segments are embedded through

discussion of the issues following a particular format.
