In a recent Becker’s Hospital Review list, “34 hospitals and health systems with great simulation and education programs," 21 SSH Accredited programs were included. That’s more than 61 percent!
If you weren’t aware, one of the top reasons healthcare simulation professionals join SSH is for networking opportunities.
In the halls at events, in volunteer activities and meetings, and even online in chats – you never know when or where that next career-boosting connection is going to spark. We just know that it does, which is why we strive like we do to provide those spark environments for our members!
We knew the 24th International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare here in San Diego, was going to be a record-setter - and it was with nearly 4,300 attendees!
But, friends, let me tell you, we didn’t know another record would be provided by Mother Nature.
With huge excitement, I am pleased to start this update with the announcement of our new SSH Director of Certification, Rachel Araujo!
Rachel comes to us from SMT/Prometric, the test development and delivery company with which we have worked with since 2011. She has been our key point of contact and knows our certifications and exam development process — and has been involved in every stage.
Many of you know her already. For those who do not, she is a great addition to our staff and will take our certification programs into the next evolution — very exciting!
During the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH ) in San Diego, the SSH Development Committee met for an in-person meeting to discuss the SSH Fund.
