Risk aware: enhancing students’ clinical competence in risky environments through blended simulation-based learning

Presenter: Dr Jade Sheen (Deakin University, Australia)

Students across the healthcare field engage in clinical placement as a component of their education. Unfortunately, there are a number of physical, psychological and environmental risks associated with clinical placement. Risk Aware is a simulation-based education program designed to address the risk associated with clinical placement, thereby enhancing students’ clinical awareness and competence. This presentation will discuss the development, implementation and evaluation of the Risk Aware program.
