Last week, to close Healthcare Simulation Week, SSH posted the Healthcare Simulationist Code of Ethics - a document I’ve seen countless times. On Friday, though, seeing that incredible piece hit me in a different, deeper way I wasn’t expecting.

Fall is just around the corner, and you know what that means, IMSH 2026 notifications and registration will be announced soon in addition to our fall educational offerings.

Hello everyone,

As a professional society, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing the global healthcare simulation community through shared learning, innovation, and collaboration. Our conferences are a cornerstone of this mission, providing opportunities for members from a wide range of professional disciplines, personal backgrounds, and geographic regions to come together, connect, and grow.

HARRISON, OHIO – The DAISY Foundation™ and Society for Simulation in Healthcare today announced their mutual support and creation of the SSH DAISY Team Award in Simulation.

It’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through the year, and submissions for IMSH 2026 have just closed! We’re thrilled to report a record number of submissions and are looking forward to another exceptional conference this January.

That's just one of many incredible happenings with SSH, and I want to make sure you're aware of them all:

As we head into the second half of 2025, I’m filled with gratitude and excitement for the momentum building across the SSH community.

Spring is in full swing which means summer is just around the corner. Whether you’re looking for education content virtually or in person, SSH has got you covered. Learn more below about all of our upcoming in person and virtual educational offerings.

Connection is defined as, “a relationship in which a person, thing, or idea is linked or associated with something else” and/or the New York Times game, where players are asked to make 4 equal groups out of 16 items, identifying commonalities between the items within the groups.

Can you make connections with the terms below? Can you figure out groups of 4 linked terms and what connects them? (The answers are in the message that follows.)
