Bridging the Gap: A Quality Improvement Initiative to Enhance Support of Locally Employed Medical Registrars Through High-Fidelity Simulation

This QI project demonstrates the feasibility of using high-fidelity simulation to support medical registrars, particularly non-training grade doctors, by enhancing perceived confidence and identifying learning needs. Given the small sample size and reliance on self-reported outcomes, findings should be interpreted as preliminary and reflective of perceived educational value rather than objective competence. Nevertheless, simulation may represent a feasible and locally scalable educational approach to support equitable professional development for SAS and LEDs in line with the Royal College of Physicians' recommendations.

Abstract

This QI project demonstrates the feasibility of using high-fidelity simulation to support medical registrars, particularly non-training grade doctors, by enhancing perceived confidence and identifying learning needs. Given the small sample size and reliance on self-reported outcomes, findings should be interpreted as preliminary and reflective of perceived educational value rather than objective competence. Nevertheless, simulation may represent a feasible and locally scalable educational approach to support equitable professional development for SAS and LEDs in line with the Royal College of Physicians' recommendations.
