Simulation training was introduced in 2008 as part of the core education program for non-specialist doctors posted to our department. It aims to help them improve clinical knowledge and skills, as well as to facilitate teamwork and communication. A survey was conducted to elicit their views on this training technique. All the participants felt that it was most effective in improving knowledge base in resuscitation work while 97 % felt that the session allowed them to train their critical decision making skills. Only 57% felt that the session helped them to improve their patient and doctor communication skills. Simulation training has been generally well received and deemed beneficial by the participants in our study.
