A tool to improve health simulation practices

2024-04-04 15:20:19

The High Authority for Health (HAS) continues to promote the development of health simulation and to enable the improvement and diversification of its structure, by offering professionals an updated guide to good practices in health simulation. This desire is in line with the core mission of HAS: strengthening the quality of care, patient safety and risk management.

The update in 2024 of the guide to good practices in health simulation aims to take into account elements that had not yet been addressed in the 2012 version as well as the evolution of practices. HAS relied on feedback from the evaluation process for health simulation structures carried out by SoFraSimS in 2016, and on several groups of experts in the field of health simulation.

The guide is aimed at all those interested in health simulation: health professionals wishing to train and professionals in health simulation structures (governance, managers, trainers, etc.), but also simulated training partners .

The guide aims to:
– to define the standards for the organization of health simulation, whatever the mode of exercise (in an exclusive in situ simulation center, within a broader training activity, in a health school);
– to supervise the implementation of health simulation programs;
– to promote the professionalization of trainers and staff working in simulation.

The guide is presented in three parts:
– the implementation of health simulation in all its forms in health simulation structures (simulation center, training organizations or school);
– the problem of grouping together structures or simulation activities organized and formalized into platforms;
– the ethical aspects of both professional conduct and responsibility in health simulation.

In addition to the updated chapters, new chapters have been integrated: digital health simulation, surgical simulation, infectious risk prevention and health simulation and ethics. The guide is supplemented by numerous appendices illustrating in a practical manner the tools and methods presented.
