About: The RCH Simulation Team are facilitating education sessions on how to run a VEMS (Visually Enhanced Mental Simulation) session. VEMS can be used for communication or deteriorating patient training, and/or running through guidelines and protocols. This simulation education modality is easily facilitated by educators within their own departments and has been used to great effect in settings where time, space, and/or equipment are limited.

Includes:

• Overview of the VEMS framework and educational principles

• Guidance on how to plan, facilitate, and debrief a VEMS session

• Practical examples of using VEMS for communication and clinical deterioration scenarios

• Tips for adapting VEMS to local department needs and constraints

• Access to sample templates and facilitator resources
