SIMULATION 2
Simulation labs are a penultimate step as far a direct interaction
with the patients is concerned. Getting the most realistic experience is
therefore important before getting into clinical rotations. Sights, smell
and complaints from the simulation lab that I attended needed my full
engagement. In the simulation lab, we were divided into particular
groups that helped us play roles as if we were dealing with a real patient.
I read instructions so that I could make no mistakes (Asamoah, Sharda, &
Rude, 2018). The sights that I could record were of any mistakes that my
friends or I could have made. I observed practical examples whereby a
child came with a broken bone and learned how to make sure the patient
is safe and well treated. I came across high tech simulation labs that
replicated the range of smells that come from the human body. The
smells hit me like a huge wall. There were sounds from the CSAV
systems.
The custom-designed cutting edge sounds and video system in the
medical simulation lab were used to enhance the training experience. In
the real-life hospital setting, the sounds were important since the sounds
represented the sounds made by different hospital machines and
equipment like the sounds that come from the surgical rooms, the
delivery rooms, and the MONOC services among others (Asamoah,
Sharda, & Rude, 2018). The development of health professionals,
knowledge, skills, attitudes and the protection of the safety of patients is
all upheld by the help of simulation labs. Direct observations from the
simulation labs are the ones that equipped me with the experience that I
have in hospitals. I also learned that the art of following instructions
keenly so that I could make very limited mistakes in my work. Making
minimal mistakes could be important in making sure that the safety of
patients was upheld. The realistic scenarios in labs were evident in
hospitals and were important for retraining and practice until I could
master the procedures in treatment (Bartram, 2019). The teamwork
