Pediatric Emergency Medicine Interdisciplinary In-Situ Simulation Series

Occurs monthly on the 1st Friday starting on 6/5/2026 at 10:30 AM
Friday, June 5, 2026, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM PT, Stanford Children's Health, Palo Alto, CA

The pediatric emergency department provides simulation-based education for physicians and interprofessional team members—including nursing, technicians, pharmacy, and respiratory therapy—to enhance pediatric resuscitation skills, familiarity with equipment and workflows, and communication during high-acuity events. Conducted in the clinical environment, these case-based and trauma-focused in-situ simulations, including quarterly sessions sessions conducted in collaboration with pediatric surgery, reinforce role clarity, resource utilization, systems-based practice, and interdisciplinary coordination. This series aims to strengthen readiness for high-acuity and critically injured pediatric patients by emphasizing shared mental models, escalation of care, coordinated team dynamics across services, and the inclusion of trainees when appropriate to reflect the usual structure of pediatric emergency and trauma care teams.
