Dr Jessica Stokes-Parish on Moulage and Simulated Participants in Healthcare Simulation Guest Speaker: Dr Jessica Stokes-Parish Season 2. Episode 2 Dr Jessica Stokes-Parish is an Associate Dean and Translational Simulation researcher at Bond University, specialising in healthcare simulation, moulage techniques, and the use of simulated participants. With a background in nursing and education, Jessica brings a wealth of knowledge on enhancing simulation realism and effectiveness. Jess is a practicing intensive care nurse and health professions educator, with post graduate degrees in education, nursing practice and science communication. In addition to 15+ years of bedside nursing, areas of work include health professions workforce development, such as policy, education, and science communication. In 2022 Jess published a signature CRABS framework for publication and research credibility. This framework is designed to help sift through online content to determine what is credible (and what’s not). She is now referred as the “CRABS Lady”! Jess has extensive experience in leadership and service roles in the higher education sector, including project management and curriculum design. She has her own private business as well as her university role and also has a highly subscribed Instagram account which challenges misinformation on the internet and how to be a good influencer. Jess is a sought after speaker for conferences both in person and in the virtual space. Episode Summary: In this episode of Sim Nurse NZ: Erin, Marie and Alison sit down with Jessica Stokes-Parish, a leading expert from Bond University, to explore the fascinating world of moulage and simulated participants in healthcare simulation. Moulage: Jessica describes her PHD topic which is the art of moulage in healthcare simulation and when and why to use moulage to create realistic scenarios. Simulated Participants: Exploring the use of simulated participants (SPs) in simulations and their contribution to immersive learning experiences. Educational Benefits: How moulage and SPs enhance clinical skills, decision-making, and teamwork among healthcare professionals. Challenges and Innovations: Discussing challenges in implementing moulage and SPs, along with innovative approaches to overcome them. Research and Future Directions: Insights into current research trends and the future of moulage and SPs in advancing healthcare simulation.
