TOT at sim centre



Today was the first day of our training of trainers course at the simulation and skills centre.  Peter, Jon, Michelle, Georges and I have been scrambling to arrange the course in the last few days.  It was a big success.  We had heads of department, senior members and residents from surgery, anesthesia, ENT, OB Gyn, and emergency.  The morning was dedicated to teaching a skill at four different stations – knot tying, intubation, cricothyroidotomy, and suturing.  The afternoon was spent on multidisciplinary team scenarios.  Michelle did a great job as a simulated patient.  There was great enthusiasm about the centre for future teaching of skills and team dynamics.  Tomorrow morning 12 medical students will arrive and the course participants from today will teach the same skills they have just learned to the med students.  Sara, the catering was stellar!
