We (Drs. David and Elaine Sigalet) started this boutique simulation company to meet some of the needs we have seen around the world with the underutilization of simulation in healthcare organizations. We were part of the leadership team that opened Sidra Medical in 2016. David was the chief of Surgery responsible for hiring and orientation of all the surgeons. I was the Director of Education. In this role I designed an interprofessional model of simulation based education to orientate more than 3500 staff.
We are both passionate about simulation and its use in both education, patient safety and quality, and operational efficiency. After retiring from Sidra, we went on to co-found Healthcare System Simulation International with a colleague. After a number of very successful collaborations, we decided to move forward with our own company to meet some priorities we felt were important.
As the past president (David) of the World Association of Pediatric Surgeons, Chief of Surgery at Sidra Medical and then Chief of Activation, and ultimately CMO of clinical operations, I have used simulation extensively in all roles both in highly resources settings and resource constrained environments. I have experienced the power of simulation at Sidra medical and am committed to supporting other healthcare organizations realize their goals using simulation. I think about simulation as the swiss army knife of healthcare; holding value for the people, the processes, environments and operational efficiencies.
I (Elaine) completed my PhD at the University of Calgary medical school in 2012 but had been involved in simulation in the emergency department I worked in for many years before that.My PhD focused on interprofessional simulation based education. Having seen the disconnect often between the department of nursing and medicine I knew that team based simulation training could improve this divide. I have published and continue to support research projects. I. developed the KIDSIM Team Performance scale and The
KidSIM Attitude Towards Team in Training Undergoing Designed Educational Simulation (ATTITUDES) Questionnaire. Both of these are still currently being used around the world. I stay active reviewing many simulation based articles for peer reviewed journals. I continue to support various educational missions in Asia and Sub Saharan Africa and am passionate about the utility of simulation. I have seen it improve knowledge and skills in frontline healthcare professionals, Identify patient safety issues and mitigate resolution, and have seen it identify areas for improving organizational efficiencies. It's power is underutilized and I would like to see that change!
Our philosophy is grounded by:
We collaborate with our clients to tailor our expertise and services to meet your education and organizational needs and goals.
