Patient safety is the foundation of high-quality health care. Simulation has been integrated with patient safety activities in pediatric emergency medicine to improve knowledge, skills, and attitudes; teamwork and communication; systems and processes; and identification and mitigation of threats to safety. Simulation efforts, coordinated with those of key stakeholders, can be a powerful agent of change at the individual provider, team, and system levels. It is imperative that simulation activities be integrated within the systems infrastructure for maximal impact and dissemination of learnings.
