We often use simulated patients in order that learners are able to practise skills in a safe space.<\/p>\n<p>There are different sessions held on most days of the week across the years, and we offer training before you facilitate a session. Senior clinicians and healthcare professionals are invited to facilitate sessions (usually agreed in your job plan), and Trainees (post FY) are welcome to join sessions and contribute under supervision of the session facilitator, to gain valuable teaching experience with agreement of your Clinical and Educational Supervisors.<\/p>\n<p>Please contact us for more details about being a tutor or a simulated patient, and please include in your email the particular teaching role you are interested in, and your preferred teaching location:\u00a0<a
