16 December 2024 | 15:00 UTC l 10:00 am ET | 7:00 am PT

IPSS Member: Free | Non-Member: $50

Discover how to develop and implement High-Fidelity Medical Escape Room Simulations (HF-MERS) during this webinar. This session will guide you through transforming a standard medical simulation into a dynamic escape room. Whether using your own scenario or choosing from provided options, you'll learn to create engaging experiences by mapping clues and puzzles to learning objectives. By the end, you'll have the knowledge and tools to design effective HF-MERS for educational purposes.

Meet the Speakers:               

Andrew Ausmus, MD

Pediatric Intensivist, Program Director, PCCM Fellowship, Associate Medical Director

Children’s Mercy Kansas City

Dr. Ausmus graduated from PICU Fellowship at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin in 2017. A Kansas City native (and life-long Chiefs fan) he was able to return and has served as an attending physician in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit at Children’s Mercy Hospital. Given his interested in fellow education, he was appointed Associate Program Director for the PCCM Fellowship in 2019 and Program Director in 2023. Combining his interests in simulation and medical education with a life-long passion for games of all types, his interest in high-fidelity medical escape rooms started as a fun project for his fellows in 2019 and has steadily grown into a larger academic interest with previous successful workshops and ongoing research projects.
