Quick trivia: per the 2021 INACSL Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice, which explicit prebrief element is credited with establishing psychological safety and reducing error cascades in high-fidelity sessions — the fiction contract, the confidentiality agreement, or the orientation to environment/equipment? I’m tightening our 0730 prebrief script and want the wording aligned precisely to the standard.
Fiction contract — the element INACSL credits with setting psychological safety; I’d add a line like “We agree to engage despite imperfections and can pause/rewind for clarity.” Small caveat: a 60‑second hands-on orientation to the defib and med pumps still prevents most error cascades — are you scripting that?
I’ve found that clearly orienting to equipment really helps build confidence. Maybe add some hands-on practice before diving in? @kwhite48.
