Caregiver Codesigned Simulation Training for Paediatric Intellectual Disability Emergency Care
Eighty-two ED healthcare professionals participated in 11 simulation sessions. Postsession surveys revealed SBE was effective in consolidating skills in communication and engagement (100%), identifying BOC (99%), preventing escalation (99%) and de-escalation strategies (96%). Ninety-seven percent felt more confident applying reasonable adjustments in clinical practice. Reflexive thematic analysis identified key learnings, including parent partnership, effective communication, early recognition and intervention and environmental modifications.
