title: Recreating simulation scenarios for interprofessional education: an example of educational interprofessional practice.
abstract: High-fidelity simulation has proliferated in healthcare education. Once a novelty, simulation is now a mainstay of many curricula and even required by some accrediting bodies. Interprofessional behaviors, manifested through interprofessional education and practice are believed to improve patients' lives. The exciting potential of simulation-interprofessional education (SIM-IPE) is now being explored. This report details a SIM-IPE experience from a university medical simulation center and Schools of Nursing and Medicine. Circumstances required an existing scenario to be "retrofitted" for interprofessional education. Key decision points, challenges and practices are highlighted in the hope that they may be of use to other simulation educators.
