I) INTRODUCING “THE SIM TEAM”
![Page 4: Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) In partnership with](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5681396d550346895da103a6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
2013:
March – Physical design of “residential simulation lab” developed at Cal State LA. Discuss with DCFS staff on potential use.
July - Aug: Construction of Residential Simulation Lab “mock up” at Cal State
LA DCFS and UCCF trainers observe LE simulations Simulation scenarios created; roles defined and rehearsed. Aug. 29th – First simulation for new trainees @ CSULA’s RSL
Sept–Dec: Simulations are being fully incorporated into academy trainings Other partners, such as County Counsel, PHNs are brought in. Attention from media CSULB begins to create its own simulation environment
II) BRIEF HISTORY
![Page 5: Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) In partnership with](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5681396d550346895da103a6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
2014:
Jan-March LA County Board of Supervisors & Blue Ribbon Commission
Reports Cal State LA’s Residential Sim Lab undergoes renovation and
upgrade. UCLA begins to create its own simulation environment.
April to Present: Cal State LA develops and tests evaluation instruments for
simulations. Will design and coordinate evaluation for all sims.
USC plans to replicate CSULA’s Residential Sim Lab at their training center.
Plans to expand use of simulations to train current CSWs and SCSWs (2,500+ people) over the next two years.
II) BRIEF HISTORY
![Page 6: Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) In partnership with](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5681396d550346895da103a6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
WHAT IS SIMULATION?
“Simulation is a technique, not a technology, to replace or amplify real experiences with guided experiences, often immersive in nature, that evoke or replicate substantial aspects of the real world in a fully interactive fashion” (Gaba, 2007)
“A method of instruction whereby an artificial or hypothetical experience that engages the learner in an activity reflecting real-life conditions but without the risk-taking consequences of an actual situation is created.” (Bastable, 2008).

IN GENERAL, SIMULATIONS…
…are designed specifically to promote critical thinking, decision making, analysis and problem solving in a safe, controlled and realistic environment.
…provide a bridge from theory to practice.…offer trainees the opportunity to prepare and practice their knowledge and skills, while also receiving constructive and supportive feedback from training faculty.
…can help increase confidence and competency

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF SIMULATIONS WORK?EXPLORING RESEARCH AND EVALUATION METHODS USED IN OTHER PROFESSIONS WHO USE SIMULATION (E.G. MEDICAL/NURSING, LE, MILITARY)
WORK OF MARION BOGO AND MARY RAWLINGS WITH OSCEs (Objective Structured Clinical Examination )
EFFECTIVE EVALUATION METHODS AND RESULTS => SUSTAINABILITY OF SUPPORT
E) RESEARCH AND EVALUATION
