Our mission is to promote, enhance and develop medical education by replicating realistic clinical experiences in a safe setting through best practices and innovation
The Baylor Scott & White Health Clinical Simulation program offers simulation education opportunities to all healthcare learner types in the Central Texas region.
We advance healthcare through simulation by fostering interprofessional collaboration, enhancing patient safety, and pioneering research in a supportive learning environment- ultimately benefiting patients and healthcare professionals alike.
Our program uses high and low fidelity manikins, task trainers, and standardized patients to provide learners a safe environment to practice, learn, innovate, and improve their skills. We support in-situ mock codes, task trainer-based skill building, communication training, and formative interprofessional team training as well as developing novel simulation experiences.

Mobile simulation
Our mobile simulation program is designed to bring high-quality simulation activities to health care providers onsite at regional hospitals and clinics. This allows learners to perform simulation scenarios on manikins and task trainers in a familiar and safe environment — their own hospital or clinic. We are happy to assist you in designing a new scenario for the unique needs of your clinic or area, or you can browse our library of scenarios.
To request or enquire about using our mobile services, please submit a request form.
Standardized Patient Program offers training in a controlled and realistic clinical atmosphere with non-judgmental feedback
Standardized patients (SP) are individuals who have been coached to consistently and accurately portray an actual medical condition or disease, including a patient's history, physical findings, personality and/or behavior.
Standardized patients are utilized in training activities for medical students, residents, nurses and allied health professionals.
