Synopsis

Simulated Patient Methodology is a timely book, aimed at health professional educators and Simulated Patient (SP) practitioners. It connects theory and evidence with practice to ensure maximum benefit for those involved in SP programmes, in order to inform practice and promote innovation. The book provides a unique, contemporary, global overview of SP practice, for all health sciences educators.

Simulated Patient Methodology:
• Provides a cross-disciplinary overview of the field
• Considers practical issues such as recruiting and training simulated patients, and the financial planning of SP programmes
