Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Objective: , a form of simulated learning, represents an effective teaching and learning approach for this purpose. Methods: exercise designed following the Swiss manual for interactive learning. The task involved identifying 13 errors relevant to patient safety within the room. Subsequently, the students provided written evaluations of this teaching format. Results: Participants successfully identified twelve out of the thirteen safety-critical errors. All students perceived the simulation as educational and pertinent to professional practice. Heightened risk awareness and relevance to the professional context were particularly highlighted as positive outcomes. Conclusion: provides a practical simulation training environment where students can develop observational skills, critical thinking, and situational awareness regarding patient safety risks early in their clinical education.
