- Enter the unit and what the simulation is about. Both are required. Describe the situation and what you want teams to practise, such as “a post-operative patient on a surgical ward deteriorates overnight with sepsis; the team must recognise it, escalate and communicate”.
- Set the level, discipline and kind of simulation. Choose clinical, emergency response, organisational crisis, ethical dilemma, strategic decision, operations problem or investigation, or let the creator choose.
- Set the shape of the session. Choose the number of stages (3 to 8), the total time including the debrief, the number of participants and the people per team. The line under the form shows how many teams you’ll have. Simulations with 6 or more stages cost more, and the price on the button follows.
- Add your outcomes and content (optional). Under more options, enter learning outcomes and they become the simulation’s objectives exactly as written. Paste a policy, protocol, case or lecture notes, and the scenario and expected actions will follow it. You can also describe the cohort and anything you want included, such as an upset family member or a rural setting.
- Create the simulation. The scenario, roles and storyline are designed first, then each stage and the debrief are written while you watch. You’re charged once, only when everything is finished. If something interrupts it, “Finish writing” carries on at no extra cost.
- Read it six ways. The overview has the aim, objectives, run sheet, roles and setup. The facilitator guide walks through every stage. Stage cards and role cards are ready to print and hand out, with handouts and private notes on their own pages. The debrief gives you questions in three parts and the key points to draw out. The stage timer runs the whole session on screen.
- Run it. Read the opening scenario and the ground rules, hand out the role cards, then start the timer. At each stage, hand out the update and any handouts, give private notes to the roles they’re for, and circulate. Use the prompts if a team is stuck and the curveball if a team is ahead.
- Rewrite or edit. Rewrite any stage or the debrief with an optional note, such as “make the patient’s family more involved” (the price is on the button), or choose Edit and change anything yourself, free.
- Download it. Get the full pack, the stage cards and handouts, or the role cards as Word, or print or save any of them as a PDF.
- Build on it. From a finished simulation you can generate multiple choice questions on the knowledge behind it, slides that teach the principles before you run it, or a follow-up worksheet. You can also create a simulation straight from an OSCE station or a case study you’ve already made. Every simulation is saved to “My Simulations” and to “Everything You’ve Generated” on your User Hub.
Every action’s credit cost is shown on its own button before you commit to it. Nothing is charged silently.
