  • Implement preventive maintenance schedules for all simulation devices and supporting technology.

Scenario Programming and Standardization

  • Program patient simulators to reflect realistic physiological and clinical states.
  • Work with faculty subject-matter experts to translate educational objectives into simulator responses.

  • Assist in embedding simulation into the curriculum, aligning scenarios with course outcomes.
  • Prepare simulation environments : room setup, props, moulage, and ensuring equipment matches learning objectives.
  • Support debriefings, recording / playback, and data collection during simulation sessions.

    • Innovation & Creative Problem-Solving

  • Develop custom or hybrid simulation solutions when commercial options are unsuitable or cost-prohibitive.
  • Use creative methods (moulage, props, environmental design, AV effects) to enhance realism.
  • Participate in budget management and recommend cost-saving or sustainable practices.

    • Interdisciplinary Liaison & Communication

  • Bridge clinical faculty, IT / AV staff, technical support, and administrative leadership.
  • Translate technical / clinical language to ensure clear collaboration across teams.

    • Operational & Administrative Tasks

  • Manage inventory of simulation equipment and consumables; track usage and supplies.
  • Schedule simulation sessions, coordinate space usage, and manage logistics for simulation courses.
  • Oversee ordering and restocking of materials and supplies needed for simulation.
  • Assist with training and onboarding of new SOS staff or other simulation support personnel.

    • Research, Data & Ethics

  • Support faculty-led research involving simulation by helping design protocols, collect data, and ensure ethical practices (e.g. privacy, participant consent).
  • Maintain data integrity and compliance with institutional and regulatory requirements (e.g. HIPAA, FERPA where applicable).

    • Professional Development & Training

  • Stay current with best practices in simulation operations, educational theory, and emerging technologies.
  • Pursue relevant certifications (e.g., Certified Healthcare Simulation Operations Specialist, CHSOS) and engage in professional organizations.
  • Train faculty, staff, and learners in simulator usage, safety, setup, and best practice debrief protocols.

    • Core Competencies & Required Knowledge

  • Solid technical skills : AV / IT systems, software, hardware troubleshooting, networking.
  • Understanding of clinical concepts, medical terminology, and common patient care workflows.
  • Strong instructional design fundamentals and ability to align simulation with pedagogical goals.
  • Excellent project management, organization, communication, adaptability, and teamwork.
