ASPiH Releases 2024 Simulation Survey Report: A Decade of Progress and Persistent Challenges in Healthcare Simulation
ASPiH has published its anticipated 2024 Simulation Survey Report, offering a comprehensive overview of simulation activities and practice across the UK and Ireland.
Key Findings
– Simulation is rarely prioritised in organisational strategy.
– Underfunding and insufficient contracted time for simulation educators persist.
– Access to faculty development is inconsistent and often unfunded.
– Use of XR, VR, and AI is growing but hindered by cost and limited evidence.
– Impact evaluation remains largely anecdotal, with few systematic measures in place.
