Pacific Northwest Healthcare Simulation Collaborative

Pacific Northwest Healthcare Simulation Collaborative A gathering of multidisciplinary professionals who collaborate to develop ideas, share knowledge, and promote the use of simulation in healthcare in the PNW.

PNWHSC provides a forum for members and the simulation community in the PNW to discuss everything simulation and share evidence-based best practice for simulation learning experiences. The Collaborative was created for simulation enthusiasts to share individual expertise, techniques, tools and resources in simulation training. PNWHSC members are educators, operations specialists, practitioners, re

searchers, and stakeholders from all divisions including schools of nursing and medicine, hospitals, and industry. The Collaborative strives to integrate and expand simulation training, methodology, and technology in healthcare education for enhancing competencies and confidence of healthcare providers. The ultimate purpose of the Collaborative is to improve patient safety and save lives in the communities it serves.
