Clinical Simulation Coordinator/Clinical Instructor, Health Occupations-College of Technology

Job Description The Simulation coordinator is responsible for supporting and maintaining the functionality of simulation technology in health occupation programs. The coordinator ensures that simulation labs, equipment, and audiovisual systems are operational, maintained, and utilized effectively to support the Health Occupations faculty.

This includes the setup, operation, and troubleshooting of simulation technology during nursing simulation sessions and assisting in creating realistic clinical environments for hands-on learning. Additionally, the coordinator manages lab inventory, coordinates scheduling, and assists faculty in the planning and delivery of simulation scenarios.

This position is not eligible for new visa sponsorship at this time. Candidates who already hold valid U.S. work authorization may be considered.

Key Responsibilities

• Set up, operate, and break down simulation scenarios, including high-fidelity manikins, medical equipment, and audiovisual systems.
• Prepare environments to simulate healthcare-related experiences, including moulage application for realism.
• Operate simulation software and systems to ensure that physiological responses occur per faculty specifications.
• Troubleshoot and maintain simulation equipment and software to ensure consistent operation.
• Utilize the audiovisual system (e.g., Simcapture) for clear recordings of simulation scenarios and troubleshoot issues as needed.
• Program manikins and simulation technology according to scenario learning objectives.
• Function as the voice of simulators and coach embedded participants on developed roles. Simulation Support and Coordination:
• Collaborate with faculty to design, implement, and deliver simulation scenarios.
• Assist faculty and students in operating simulation technology during hands-on training.
• Coordinate scheduling of simulation labs and equipment in collaboration with faculty.
• Support the use of standardized patients and assist in selecting appropriate modalities for simulation scenarios.
• Assist with debriefing learners and faculty according to best practices.
• Engage with community partners to provide simulation opportunities. Maintenance and Inventory:
• Perform routine maintenance of simulation equipment, manikins, and audiovisual technology.
• Manage inventory systems, ensuring simulation environments are stocked with necessary medical supplies and equipment.
• Restock labs after simulation scenarios and coordinate the ordering of supplies.
• Ensure the proper care and maintenance of all simulation technology and equipment. Training and Professional Development:
• Train faculty, staff, and students on the use of simulation equipment and software.
• Participate in continual learning, including staying up-to-date with advancements in simulation technology. Data Collection and Reporting
• Document simulation activities, including equipment usage, technical issues, and maintenance logs.
• Assist with data collection for program evaluation and student assessment purposes.
• Collaborate with faculty on curriculum design and simulation scenario planning.
