Description
The QuEST (Quality Improvement Embedded with In-Situ Simulation) program is a two-day workshop designed to equip healthcare professionals with the tools to integrate simulation-based learning into quality improvement (QI) initiatives.
The course emphasizes hands-on practice in designing in-situ simulations, analyzing patient safety concerns, and developing sustainable QI projects. Participants will gain insights into the application of simulation in clinical practice to improve care delivery and patient outcomes.
