It is my pleasure to announce Dr. Shikha Bansal as the new Medical Lead, for the Simulation Program at TBRHSC. Simulation has become an integral part of teaching, learning and quality improvement and we look forward to having someone with Shikha’s knowledge and expertise guide us in further developing our program.
Shikha currently works as a Staff Anesthesiologist at TBRHSC, and Assistant Professor at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM). She brings to the role over 10 years of experience in the field of anesthesia and a passion for medical education and simulation-based training. She believes that optimal learning outcomes are best met through experiential learning or learning by doing.
Shikha was a Clinical Fellow in Anesthesia Simulation at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre (SHSC), where she was involved in the development and delivery of simulation based programs across many departments. She is well versed in research practices that incorporate simulation and plans to continue with her own research endeavors and
to support others with their research interests.
Shikha’s vision and experience makes her an ideal leader to enhance the Simulation Program here at TBRHSC.
Please join me in welcoming Shikha to this role.
