Workshops

Here you find a catalogue of some of my more prominent education projects. Ranging from curriculum design to teaching, from simulation to gamification, from health professionals training to community up-skilling, from passion projects to just the regulars. But in all, you will see themes of health, impact, service, design thinking, and scholarship.

S.A.F.E Simulation Advancing Family-Centred Care

A grant-funded project aimed at improving emotionally safe communication for pediatric care, especially during invasive procedures. This series of trainings will train 100 staff across AKUH (secondary and tertiary care) Pediatric ERs to make care delivered to children and their families 'emotionally safe'. This is a quasi-experimental, single-group pre/post-design research study.

From Moms to Super Moms: First Responders Course for Mothers

A unique offering for mothers. To celebrate Mother's Day 2025, CIME in collaboration with the Department of Early Childhood Development, ran a half-day hands-on training on how mothers can respond to emergencies at home ( including bleeding, burns, head injury, falls, fractures, drowning, and administering bystander CPR); followed by a well being session sharing along with parenting tips.

The first responders' part was developed and taught by my team. Our brief interaction with the mothers showed us a real gap that parents (men and women) face in terms of information, knowledge, and available training. What better way to plug this gap than by offering experiential learning through simulation? Once these parents go home, they are on their own. Giving them time to practice in a safe space, so they can build confidence and clear up self-doubts, is essential.

We have now decided to run this training a few times in a year, as a service to the community and also as a research project to inform future advocacy for parents to receive continuous training.

To the left is an Instagram link showing a video of the course.
