Kim Leighton takes advisory board position at Healthcare Simulation Middle East

DOHA, Qatar - Jan. 19, 2023 - PRLog -- Kim Leighton takes advisory board position at Healthcare Simulation Middle East.

Kim Leighton says, "Qatar and the Middle East have been home to me through friends, colleagues, mentees, role models and regional causes. We've racked up milestones as a community. Many miles to go before we sleep. My role is to reflect best practices in non-profit activities and identify pertinent causes. Nothing is too small or big when it comes to making a difference."

The formal role includes counsel and engagement audit across regional and global communities.

Ansari Shabnam Ateeq, President, Healthcare Simulation Middle East says, "As mover-n-shaker, Dr. Kim Leighton has grown simulation spaces into centers, developed faculty across medicine, nursing and allied health. From a non-profit perspective, you want people who'd be doing great stuff with or without Healthcare Simulation Middle East. Dr. Kim Leighton has developed a number of instruments to measure effectiveness and outcomes in healthcare simulation. These are available at no cost on her website 'Evaluating Healthcare Simulation'. In 2011, she received a presidential citation from Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH) in recognition of efforts to break down silos and build bridges between disciplines, organizations and individuals. While president of INACSL, she spearheaded development in standards for best practices. She is co-editor of the award-winning book 'Simulation Champions: Courage, Caring, and Connection'. She is an educator, researcher and mentor. You get the idea... there can't be an advisory board without Dr. Kim Leighton."

Deb Tauber MSN, RN, CHSE, CEN shares, "Kim Leighton is the first guest on The Sim Cafe Podcast. We go a long way back as friends and peers."

Lance Baily adds, "Kim Leighton has placed Qatar on the world map of healthcare simulation, but really, she's a global figure. To have her on board means amping up effectiveness of regional and global community engagement efforts."
