Introduction and Purpose/Objectives: The study provides an insight into the reflections from a student and facilitator experience and perspectives of participating in an international interdisciplinary simulation challenge event held at the University of Derby.

The event objectives consisted of preparing health and social care student participants for the complexities and challenges of global public health emergencies, fostering skills that are essential for effective and compassionate practice in a global context.

Both student participants and academic facilitators were challenged with experiences outside of their normal comfort zones. For students they were challenged with working within interdisciplinary groups (rather than profession specific as they would normally undertake other simulation-based education); they were also challenged with a carousel of high-fidelity simulations with a diverse range of scenarios related to global public health emergencies. For the academic facilitators they were challenged with providing structured rapid debriefing as participants rotated across the series of event scenarios; undertaking debriefing via a standardised time limited approach STOP5, a tool and a restricted time period to debriefing that the majority of facilitators were unfamiliar with.

Approaches/Methods: A parallel of mixed methods consisting of student event evaluations and facilitators experience of using time limited debriefing in the form of the STOP5 framework.

Students – Event evaluation questionnaire.

Facilitators – 5 stages using an action research approach.

1. Access to hot debriefing training

2. Pre-simulation questionnaire

3. Simulation debrief facilitation

4. Post-simulation questionnaire

5. Post-simulation focus group

Results/Findings: Event to occurred in May 2024 and data pre and post event to be collated and presented.

Discussion/Implication:

The outcomes will:

- inform the development of future international interdisciplinary simulation-based education events related to global public health emergencies.

- inform the utility and effectiveness of time limited debriefing applied to the STOP5 framework of multi-event scenarios within simulation-based education.
