Volunteer for Patient Simulation for Healthcare Students

Posted on by

Student in EMT program takes the blood pressure of a medical mannequin.Health Professions and Human Services is launching a Standardized Participant (SP) program, and we are seeking enthusiastic volunteers from Central Piedmont to participate and contribute to this invaluable initiative.

Standardized participants are individuals trained to portray various roles, such as patient and family members, in specific medical scenarios and patient cases for the purpose of teaching and evaluating healthcare students. By volunteering as a standardized participant, you will play an essential role in training our health profession students to enhance their communication skills, clinical examinations, and overall patient care abilities. As an SP, you will have the opportunity to simulate diverse clinical encounters, providing our students with realistic scenarios to practice their skills in a safe and controlled environment.

Participating in our SP program not only benefits our Health Professions and Human Services students, but it also offers tremendous personal and professional growth opportunities for you. You will gain a deeper understanding of the healthcare field, develop empathy and effective communication skills, and contribute to the education of future healthcare providers.

Simulations will take place at Central Campus. Our goal is to recruit and train of a pool of potential volunteers that we can pull from, and you will be able to volunteer for days/times that work for your schedule. We are seeking a wide range of diversity for our simulations, so all ages, and demographics are encouraged to volunteer.

If you are interested in volunteering as a standardized participant, please email Jay Bianco for more information.
