RESUMO
The Multi-Professional Oncology Safety and Simulation Training (MOSST) program, supported by the National Cancer Institute was launched in Fall 2018. The original workshop was conducted in person. As the COVID pandemic hit the program was transitioned to an online/distance simulation program using best practices in healthcare simulation design and implementation. The full day workshop was moved to an online platform using Zoom and the in-person simulations were re-developed as video branching case simulations. Learner outcomes that were identical in each modality were evaluated using the evaluation metrics from the original workshop. The use of a distance simulation modality to deliver the MOSST workshop resulted in a high-quality educational experience for the learners and the educational outcomes were comparable to the in-person version. Distance simulation using virtual unfolding case studies and didactic content showed comparable subjective and objective outcomes from participating learners. This work adds to the developing body of research on distance simulation.
