This practical book is designed to be a hands-on guide for healthcare simulation personnel to both understand the context of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) in healthcare education and how to bring those concepts to life in simulation training.

The first section of this guidebook grounds the readers in the concepts of EDI in contemporary culture and specifically within healthcare education. The second section gives practical tips and ideas on setting up a simulation program that is grounded in EDI principles. This section covers areas related to staff recruiting, faculty representation, appropriate manikin and moulage diversity, creating patient scenarios, inclusive debriefing, and more topics.

The final section brings EDI in practice to life with real examples from around the world. Simulation examples, concepts, and principles that focus on a diverse range of patients and their needs. This includes patients of various races, religions, nationalities, abilities, and even scenarios of bias from a patient to healthcare provider.

This book ensures the next generation of healthcare professionals are trained not only in an equitable and inclusive manner, but that they are prepared to approach all of their future patients that way.
