Simulation-Based Trauma-Informed Care Education Instills Empathy and Improves Clinician Practices Towards Refugee and Migrant Populations
This training enhanced clinicians' trauma-informed practices towards refugee and migrant patients, with learners qualitatively expressing a greater sense of empathy towards this community. While measuring the impact on learners' empathy requires further assessment, this educational innovation's preliminary success provides a foundation for the role of simulation-based learning in medical education.
