How fresh are your skills? This app. provides scenarios designed to improve your clinical competence and critical thinking. Early in your education you learned skills that every provider is responsible to know, but in clinical opportunities to perform those skills are often infrequent. All it takes to use this app. is a laboratory and use of most any mannequin. The scenarios allow you to search information, assess situations, prioritize and practice skills and document accordingly.

The thought provoking scenarios are a grouping of situations that promote open communication among students and instructors. Layered Learning app’s. are designed to be easily used by everyone. The programs include excises in Prioritization, Delegation, Information Collection, Discussion and Collaboration.

Looking for consistency for an entire clinical course? Using this tool each clinical group will have a consistent base of situations and discuss potential answers to take to their next level of learning.

Use the critical thinking scenarios when you are out of ideas but not out of time. They can be used for clinical make-up, in class or as remediation in the office.

The cards allow the educator to evaluate the student’s understanding of emergency concepts. Give students a chance to correct one another and exhaust their thoughts. The students will likely show you where there are gaps in knowledge.
