The SIM Expo, now entering its fourth iteration, has grown to become Canada’s

premier healthcare simulation event. It is becoming increasingly clear that more and more people are coming

to appreciate the SIM Expo as a valuable experience—one that exemplifies leading-edge thinking, collaboration

and community.

“Community” means a lot to SIM-one; indeed, “Simulation & Community” is the theme of this year’s event.

The SIM Expo is a time when everyone in the SIM-one Community—from educators to researchers to industry—

comes together to celebrate each other’s dedication and accomplishments. I encourage you to make the most

out of your experience by networking with your fellow simulationists.

The 2013 SIM Expo marks the conclusion of a successful year. It’s been a full year since SIM-one was

formally incorporated as a not-for-profit organization and on December 4th we will elect our first skills-based

Board of Directors. Our programs and divisions continue to experience tremendous growth, including our

interprofessional Keystones of Healthcare Simulation Certificate Program, and our Simulation Research

& Innovation Grants Program. Next year will be even better.

For this year’s SIM Expo, we are honoured to have as speakers Saäd Rafi, the Deputy Minister of the Ministry

of Health and Long-Term Care, and Dr. Samir Sinha, the Expert Lead of Ontario’s Seniors Care Strategy.

We also have a broad spectrum of new and popular activities for participants to choose from, such as

“Simulation in Action”. This year, we have more networking activities, workshops and academic

Sustainable growth of a simulation centre: Tackling the challenges

Operations

Adam Mongodin and Renee Dufour

The objective of this workshop is to provide participants with knowledge on a practical approach

to cost containment and improvements methodology, addressing several sustainability concerns.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to identify the overall cost structure

of a simulation centre and containment potentials.

Enhancing the versatility of your simulation practice: How to start working with Simulated Patients!

SP

Cathy Smith and Valerie Fulmer

In this practical, interactive workshop, we draw on our diverse experiences in two different

countries to introduce some key elements of SP methodology, including recruitment, training

related to performance style and feedback delivery for those simulationists who are interested

in working with SP methodology but are not sure how to start.

Build it and they will come: tools to develop an interprofessional simulation-based education program

IPE

Merianne Castellarin, Darlene Murray, Afrothite Kotsakis and Elaine Ng

Participants will be provided with the skills necessary to develop and implement an interprofessional

simulation curriculum. In 2012, a hospital-wide, simulation-based mock code program was launched

at the Hospital for Sick Children with great success. We will use this experience to illustrate

the framework used when planning such a program.
