Abstract

This chapter reflects upon the content of the previous chapters, highlighting the initial growth of simulation within the breadth of emergency medical education and the current movement back towards healthcare simulation’s roots in patient safety and systems testing. A future for simulation in healthcare is posited taking advantage of emerging technologies such as virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence and data analytics. The unifying factor underlying the power and effectiveness of healthcare simulation, however, remains dedicated faculty trained in the foundations of healthcare simulation and educational theory.
