SPs will be trained by an assigned educator for a given case on standardized role portrayal and scoring in order to each learner with a similar experience for practice and assessment. During teaching or assessment activities SPs should expect that the learner may interview, counsel, and/or perform noninvasive physical exams. These simulated patient encounters are designed to enable experiential learning by offering learners the opportunity to develop, practice and enhance their medical interviewing skills, communication skills, and physical exam techniques.

  • Memorize a case script detailing specific emotions, behaviors, and disease signs/symptoms for presentation during simulated learning situations
