Hello, The Simulation Center at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine is once again looking for actors of many demographics (18 and over) to portray patients for Medical Education Learners. Most needed are: · Males able to play under 40 (20s and 30s Very Needed!) · Females of (or able to play) childbearing years (18-40)! · Any age - Native Spanish Speakers – o for a Medical Spanish Interview program several afternoons in Oct, Nov and Dec 2021 You can help train the next generation of Doctors! We will train you to portray a patient so students* can practice interviewing, physical exam and professionalism. Our Standardized Patients (SPs) are employed as Independent Contractors and work according to their individual availability and interest (work as little or as much as you’d like). Most programs are held in person Monday through Friday between 8 am and 5 pm. SPs are recruited about 4-6 weeks in advance and trained before the beginning of the program. Programs are a minimum of 2 hours long (most are longer) plus 2 hours of training (SPs are reimbursed at $20 an hour for both the training and the program). While we do record most sessions and require our SPs to sign an extensive video release, be aware that (due to student privacy laws) the videos are only used for student review, SP training and research. Any video shot for group education or other publication would need to be expressly recruited and documented outside of normal programs. If you are interested you can find more information at our website (click here for site) <https://case.edu/medicine/cscsimcenter/simulation-resources/standardized-patients> or by reaching out via email. Those who would like to apply can fill out the SP Application <https://case.edu/medicine/cscsimcenter/sites/case.edu.cscsimcenter/files/2019-08/MSSSC%20MASTER%20SP%20Application-WEB%20VERSION%20%7BV2%7D.pdf> and return it to me at hmg29@case.edu. Programs are held year-round and new SPs are auditioned and onboarded continually. Thank you for your time, Howard hmg29@case.edu <hmg29@case.edu> *Our learners include Students from our Medical School, Physicians Assistant program, Nursing School and Dental School, as well as some outside clients and current medical professionals. -- *Howard M.
