Simulation training for primary caregivers in the neonatal intensive care unit

Simulation is a hands-on educational modality that creates a safe, confidential learning environment that is closely aligned with the principles of patient- and family-centered care. This makes it an ideal training tool for families and caregivers of medically complex infants as they prepare for their care at home. Multidisciplinary collaboration and participation is vital to the success of these simulations and encourages the development of needs assessments and learning objectives that are congruent with the family ’s goals, beliefs, and culture.
