The Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine welcomes your pediatric anesthesia fellows for a one-day simulation training event. 

For the last eight years, Johns Hopkins has hosted a high-fidelity simulation bootcamp for senior pediatric anesthesia fellows in the spring of their fellowship training. This bootcamp represents a collaboration effort with many of the country’s premier educators in the specialty from neighboring institutions such as the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Cleveland Clinic, Nemours Children’s Health and St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children.

During this one-day event at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, MD, trainees will work through a combination of advanced simulated patient scenarios and point of care ultrasound workshops in a safe and engaging environment.
