3
History

• Brief history of how we three met and began
  planning our work together.
• Ray

4
Identified Specific Patient Care Situation Role
Identification

• RRT began tracking numbers.
• Identified problem at the patients bedside
  involving communication of responsibility and
  role of healthcare provider as Rapid Response
  Team began being called to bedside.
• Jane

5
Our Common Question

• Can simulation bridge the gap among disciplines
  by providing an avenue to open boundaries in care
  of patients?
• Realism connecting the silos
• Maria

Our Teamwork Began

• Steps involved in creating our interdisciplinary
  simulation.

Simulation Template

•  Each discipline emailed their educational
  objectives
• Example
• Nursing Objectives
• The student will
• have the opportunity to experience training with
  a multidisciplinary team to learn about the role
  of the rapid response team.
• experience a simulation with patient status
  decline and must decide when to call for
  assistance.
• communicate effectively to other team members
  using the SBAR format.
