摘要:The arrival of the coronavirus pandemic has caused massive disruption to medical education, with universities having to close and adopt new ways of teaching, ensuring social distancing as standard. Final year medical students from the University of Aberdeen graduated early and stepped up to start working as ‘Foundation interim Year 1 doctors’ (FiY1). With their final months of medical school and end of year examinations cancelled, we felt that an in-situ ward simulation would help them make that transition by giving them an opportunity to act up in a safe environment. Here we share our tips for designing and implementing an in-situ simulation aimed at junior doctors in the early stages of their training. We conclude by reflecting on what we have learnt and how we plan to take this method of simulation forward into future practice, once the pandemic is over.
