Simulated Patient Program
Overview
Our Simulated Patient (SP) program is an integral part of the center and supports clinical skills teaching at various levels within our curriculum. The program involves the utilization of volunteers to role-play medical cases thus enabling students to learn the skills of medical communication, history taking and physical examination in a real-world experience. We thoroughly enjoy working with dedicated and experienced simulated patients as part of our team. SPs are engaged in a variety of clinical sessions teaching including history taking and counseling practice, physical examination, provision of constructive feedback to students, and finally participation in assessment of leaners in all levels of medical education.
Every year, we welcome new SPs to our program. If you are interested in joining our program as an SP, please do not hesitate to contact us. Further information can be found in our SP program manual, which you can download here.
Who can be a Simulated Patient?
