For RJAH Staff Nurse Rhian Traquair, simulation-based training has made a real difference to her confidence, skills and professional development 👏

After initially struggling during her nursing degree, Rhian discovered learning approaches that worked for her and went on to graduate with a first-class degree from Staffordshire University.

Since joining RJAH, she has embraced opportunities to develop her skills through the hospital’s Simulation Lab – a safe, hands-on environment where staff can practise real-world clinical scenarios, reflect on their learning and build confidence.
