TRAINING AND EDUCATION FOR HEALTH

Welcome to SPRPlus

Simulated Patients! Professional Development Scenarios!

Developing interpersonal skills through experiential methods.

We are a dynamic company, founded by professionals with a wealth of experience, providing education and training using simulated patients and real life situations on a wide range of topics.

We will support you in improving health outcomes for your service users - and your organisation and staff – by developing practical skills in the personal interactions so crucial to:

  • Clinical consultations
  • Professional development
  • Changing organisational culture

SPRPlus simulators include professionally trained actors and members of the public. All have had rigorous training, which includes providing feedback, both in and out of role, to the workshop participants.

We provide workshops, which are designed to meet each client’s particular needs, for small and large groups in safe environments, and these are led and co-ordinated by our experienced teachers and facilitators. Importantly, scenarios that are potentially distressing for both patient and clinician may be rehearsed through simulation. We continually develop scenarios covering a wide range of topics, which include:

  • Breaking bad news and palliative care
    		•
  • Appraisal skills
