How do I debrief learners from other professions? How do I not single out one profession if a person did not do well in the simulation?

Debriefing, the learning conversation post a simulation experience, is the heart of simulation. To debrief effectively, faculty development on…

An expert panel of IPE educators from MGH Institute of Health Professions (IHP) will illustrate how creative use of narrative, through…
