Patient safety the Tag Team Patient Safety Simulation methodology and illustrate its key features with reference to a
Tag team medication safety scenario.
Methods: Informed by the National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards and the Patient Safety
Competency Framework for Nursing Students, Tag Team Patient Safety Simulation methodology actively
engage large numbers of nursing students in critical conversations around every day clinical encounters
which can compromise patient safety.
Conclusion: Tag Team Patient Safety Simulation is a novel simulation methodology that enhances nursing
students’ skills and knowledge, fosters critical conversations, and has the potential to enhance students’
resilience and capacity to speak up for safe patient care.
