Simulation

Simulation Resources Hub

Brought to you by the London School of Paediatrics Simulation team

Welcome to a huge repository of paediatric simulation scenarios, brought to you by the paediatric simulation team of the London School of Paediatrics!

These scenarios are for the use of trainees within the LSP to provide an easy to access bank of SIM scenarios to support the use of local simulation training.

Help shape the future of local SIM: We want to empower local SIM teams to learn, experiment and prepare for the challenges together.
We’re inviting you to share simulation scenarios that reflect real-world situations, local priorities and emerging challenges. Your ideas can help others learn from your experience and build stronger, more relevant simulations.
Submit a scenario and receive a certificate recognising your contribution. Help us grow a collection of practical simulation scenarios for the LSP community.
 Fill in the scenario proforma and send to simulation.lsp@gmail.com

Important Information

Disclaimer: These simulation scenarios are designed for local use and are provided free of charge. They are intended as a resource to support local simulation practice and may be adapted to suit individual settings and needs.
Users should exercise their own professional judgement and discretion when selecting, adapting and delivering scenarios, taking into account local policies, procedures and circumstances.

Resources: Resources and reference material are not directly linked within the scenarios. However useful supporting resources may include CATS, STRS, BSPED, Resus Council UK algorithms and the RCPCH Child Protection Companion.
