During an interaction with a student, the SP presents the case history in response to questioning by the student and undergoes physical examinations at the student’s direction. Each SP encounter is designed to assess skills appropriate to a student’s level of training to provide a safe and supportive environment conducive for learning or for standardized assessment. Patients may be audio- or videotaped during simulation. Sessions occur periodically throughout the year. Having a flexible schedule is helpful.
