SP recruitment is designed to replace email sending, phone calls and spreadsheeting to facilitate your Standardized Patient coordinating process.
As part of the recruitment process:
- create Cast Sheets that relate to a curriculum, class, subject, or any long term medical training project.
See How to Create Cast Sheets. Inside a Cast sheet, create one or more Sessions that determine the exact date and time of specific simulated patient encounters.
A Session must start and end on the same day.
- Inside a Session, you can add one or multiple Cases to which SPs can be invited. Each Case corresponds to a single patient encounter.
- Search for SPs registered in your database by specific criteria such as age, sex, race, physical details, or qualifications.
- Once SP candidates submit their availability, you can finalize the recruitment process by confirming them for the simulated patient encounter:
Stay in contact with SPs up to the day of the simulated patient encounter by creating a Chat group with the confirmed SPs:
