WIRED-RT COVID-19 Simulation Curriculum Toolkit available on HIPxChange

Tired medical worker The COVID-19 pandemic has put new constraints on the care of patients. Concerns about viral transmission, limiting exposure, proper PPE utilization, and evolving best practices in caring for patients with a novel viral disease has led to healthcare workers feeling high levels of uncertainty and has left healthcare systems scrambling to prepare their staff for sudden surges in patients.

Authors developed the WIRED-RT COVID-19 Simulation Curriculum Toolkit to help health systems and healthcare providers prepare for surges in COVID-19 cases by focusing on proper PPE utilization, infection control practices, and patient care best-practices as of the date of publication.

This toolkit is intended for use by healthcare educators and quality assurance professionals who are facile with simulation education techniques. These cases are designed to be run for practicing healthcare practitioners who currently are, or will be, caring for patients with COVID-19.
