                                              Mission & Purpose

                                              Mission

                                              The mission of HealthPartners Clinical Simulation is to improve health and patient safety through simulation-based programs designed to maximize the abilities of individuals, teams and systems. 

                                              We partner with health care leaders and systems to implement and expand innovative simulation-based education and assessment programs for healthcare professionals and students.  We contribute to the body of simulation knowledge through scholarly activities.

                                              Purpose

                                              HealthPartners Clinical Simulation is a department within the Institute for Medical Education that partners with healthcare professionals, educators, & administrators to:

                                              Utilize simulation to help health care professionals and students provide the highest quality and safest delivery of patient care, and to improve the processes and systems of patient care to the greatest extent possible.
                                              Picture
                                              Foster a safe learning environment where health care professionals and students receive constructive, non-judgmental feedback.

                                              Improve individual and team performance in a simulated environment that provides healthcare professionals and students the chance to synthesize and apply their clinical and teamwork knowledge and skills in a real time setting where patient care is not at risk.

                                              Improve systems performance by partnering with departments, disciplines, and health systems to develop effective and innovative clinical simulation based education and assessment tools, FMEA (failure modes and effects analysis) simulation scenarios, and to test new, novel processes and practices before implementing them in actual patient care settings.

                                              Develop and implement assessment processes to establish competence.
                                               
                                              Serve as an organizational and regional resource for simulation methodology.

                                              Provide leadership for simulation-based activities.

                                              Expand the field of simulation through research and other scholarly activities.

                                              Vision:

                                              To be an essential partner and leader in simulation-based education and research.
                                              Our mission is to improve health and patient safety through simulation-based programs designed to maximize the abilities of individuals, teams and systems. Our vision is to be an essential partner and leader in simulation-based education and research. HealthPartners IME (c) 2011
