Abstract
As the proportion of older adults in the world’s population
continues to age exponentially [1], training healthcare providers
and teams in the care of older adults will become increasingly
important [2]. Older adults often have complex medical
and psychosocial issues [3]. Simulation is recognized as being
an effective educational method to train teams in caring for
older adults [2]. Simulated participants (SPs) are well people
trained to portray individuals such as patients and their family
members [4, 5]. SP methodology is an established and effective
simulation modality especially valuable when competencies
relate to the development of person-centred skills that
consider the whole life of a person rather than just their experience
as a patient [6] or focus on how teams look after and care
for older adults and their families on a daily basis [7]. Working
with older adult SPs can bring authenticity to encounters, promoting
strong engagement from learners [4–6]. However,
there is limited information and a lack of broader understanding
about working with older adult SPs and those who support
them to create authentic, safe, and effective simulations [7].
