The CICSL Journal club is a monthly event where all are welcome to gather and engage in critical discussion of emerging practices related to clinical simulation education. The CICSL Journal Club occurs on the fourth Thursday of each month, between 1200 and 130pm.
If you have any questions or would like to be added to the invitation list, please email cicsl@viha.ca.
SIM-IPE and TeamSTEPPSThis Journal Club explores the topic of Interprofessional education involving didactic TeamSTEPPS® and interactive healthcare simulation and was presented by Darin Abbey. Darin is the Director for the Centre for Interprofessional Clinical Simulation Learning, Clinical Faculty in UBC’s Island Medical Program, and an Adjunct Assistant Professor at UVic’s School of Nursing.

Medical Assistance in Dying: A Community SimulationThis video is a presentation of a community simulation which occurred in Victoria, BC in May of 2018. This enactment or simulation of a Medical Assistance in Dying [MAiD] event is being shared in an intentional way to convey information, increase understanding and stimulate dialogue.
This is an evolving topic, as this recording was made in May of 2018. Resources and circumstances may have changed.
The objective of this video is to portray an accurate depiction of the current state of MAiD on Vancouver Island. To meet this objective, the video follows a patient and her husband as they experience an initial exploration with their family physician, through the process of qualify for and then working with a MAID provider to have a medically assisted death. The video concludes with excerpts from a group debriefing.

What is the impact of multidisciplinary team simulation training on team performace and efficiency of patient care? An integrative reviewThis Journal Club explores the article What is the impact of multidisciplinary team simulation training on team performace and efficiency of patient care? An integrative review, and was presented by Suzanne Campbell PhD, RN, IBCLC. Suzanne is an Associate Professor at the School of Nursing at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC, Canada. She has published book chapters and articles on nursing education, and is co-editor of Simulation Scenarios for Nursing Educators: Making it Real, (3rd Ed., 2018). Her clinical expertise in obstetrics, lactation, and women's health has provided opportunities for interprofessional education and development using simulation and innovative teaching methods. Her focus on instrument development has led to creation of the Global Interprofessional Therapeutic Communication Scale© (GITCS©) for assessment of the non-technical skill, therapeutic communication, between patient and provider, to be used interprofessionally and within a global context. She serves on several boards, including as Vice-President for International Affairs for the International Nursing Association for Clinical and Simulation Learning (INACSL)(2018-2020). An active member of the BC Simulation Network and Western Canadian Health Science Educators (WCHSE) she also is a course lead for Module 2 & 3 of CASN’s Canadian Simulation Nurse Educator certificate program.
Variation and adaptation: learning from success in patient safety-oriented simulation trainingThis Journal Club explores the topic of Variation and adaptation: learning from success in patient safety-oriented simulation training, and was presented by Dr. Jeff Bishop. Dr. Bishop is a pediatric critical care physician at the Victoria General Hospital. He first became involved in simulation during residency training in the early 2000’s and has been working to improve on his delivery and preceptorship of simulated learning ever since. Dr. Bishop’s current role is as the simulation lead for the 3rd year clerkship at UBC’s Island Medical Program.
The Simulation Safety PledgeThis unique Journal Club explores the Simulation Safety Pledge https://healthcaresimulationsafety.org/simulation-pledge/, and was presented by Darin Abbey, RN. Darin is the Director of the Centre for Interprofessional Clinical Simulation Learning, is Clinical Faculty in UBC’s Island Medical Program, and is an Adjunct Assistant Professor at UVic’s School of Nursing.
