Résumé
In recent years, hospitals have decreased the amount of night shift work done by junior residents to reduce overtime. We conducted simulation-based education on the theme of ward-cover night shifts to compensate for decreased clinical experiences. Two scenarios were created based on actual clinical cases, and each group of participants and facilitators experienced the cases with simulated patients. Review time was held after each scenario, and important points in each scenario were explained after finishing all simulations. Participants were highly satisfied with the new night shift call-oriented simulation, which fulfilled the resident’s need for practical education. Providing opportunities for reflection and conceptualization contributed to effective acquisition of clinical knowledges. Further study to assess the usefulness of simulation-based education using objective assessments is required.
