Intuitive program and excellent customer support
I love the aesthetics and ease of use. From the student end, the data entry is pretty intuitive. The only issue we have had is training faculty and preceptors to use the evaluation tools and also how to verify versus evaluate. A busy ED shift will result in students taking notes and doing data entry later but then the preceptor can get behind on evaluations. I didn’t think I would use the check in/out tool but it turns out that one is one of my favorites so I can see who has shown up to their shift in real time and intervene immediately if necessary. Just started using the sim session tool and I LOVE it. Drag and drop skills makes it much easier on faculty running the sim. We record some simulations so I can go back and evaluate also. Reports are super helpful, although I am still getting used to the tally and what will populate which column. I want all skills (successful and unsuccessful) to show up somewhere but I’m not sure if they do unless they meet a very prescribed evaluation pattern for assessment, treatment and management. If we do rapid cycle deliberate practice using a one patient/ four skills practice session, will the student get credit for the patient or the skills or both if it is entered as a sim pt/solo skill? Overall, very happy with this product and the amazing customer support.
