Simulated patient educators [SP educators (SPEs)] provide recommendations for designing and delivering equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) training with simulated participants (SPs). Recommendations include to engage SP educators as subject matter experts (SMEs) in SP-based curriculum development and training; utilizing an interdisciplinary approach to EDI training curriculum development to account for intersectionality; practicing self-reflexivity as SP educators to account for the influence of their lived experience in curriculum development and training; include SPs with diverse backgrounds to pilot EDI training; and invest in EDI training for SP programs to catalyze program-wide cultural change. It is critical that SP educators lead or, at minimum, are consulted with as the SMEs in developing EDI training for and with SPs because they have expertise in SP methodology. This expertise manifests in a dual, collaborative approach in which they simultaneously advance curricula while upholding SP physical and psychosocial safety needs. SP educators also have expertise regarding financial and operational resources and constraints, which have a bearing on how SP-based EDI training is funded and delivered.

摘要

Simulated patient educators [SP educators (SPEs)] provide recommendations for designing and delivering equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) training with simulated participants (SPs). Recommendations include to engage SP educators as subject matter experts (SMEs) in SP-based curriculum development and training; utilizing an interdisciplinary approach to EDI training curriculum development to account for intersectionality; practicing self-reflexivity as SP educators to account for the influence of their lived experience in curriculum development and training; include SPs with diverse backgrounds to pilot EDI training; and invest in EDI training for SP programs to catalyze program-wide cultural change. It is critical that SP educators lead or, at minimum, are consulted with as the SMEs in developing EDI training for and with SPs because they have expertise in SP methodology. This expertise manifests in a dual, collaborative approach in which they simultaneously advance curricula while upholding SP physical and psychosocial safety needs. SP educators also have expertise regarding financial and operational resources and constraints, which have a bearing on how SP-based EDI training is funded and delivered.
