Confederates
Confederates are experienced healthcare professionals (physician, nurse, respiratory therapist, paramedic, etc) who act as team members during a simulation activity. They can provide the professional realism that challenges and teaches the learner.
We are recruiting more healthcare professionals to be our confederates on a temporary casual basis. If you are NOT currently a McMaster University employee and are interested in joining our team, please contact Simulation Lab Assistant Lisa Bonney at bonneyl@mcmaster.ca.
