# Single-Point Sim Template — v1

**Audience:** Proctor (unit educator, charge RN, or designated facilitator)
**Run time:** 3-5 minutes
**Prep time:** Under 2 minutes
**Capture:** One line on the proctor data sheet

---

## How to Run

1. **Set the scene (1 min).** Two sentences. Name the location, the patient state, the staffing context.
2. **Show the missed step (1 min).** One sentence. Name the moment the team typically gets wrong.
3. **Ask the judgment question (1 min).** One question. Wait for one answer. No debate.
4. **Rerun the right response (1 min).** One sentence. Group affirms or corrects.
5. **Name the threshold and log (1 min).** One sentence on the line that should not be crossed. Fill the proctor sheet.

## Rules for the Proctor

- One judgment point per sim. If you find yourself asking two questions, split the sim.
- No patient identifiers or PHI. Use "the patient" or a role label (e.g., "the newly admitted teen").
- No physical demonstrations of restraint, seclusion, or any hands-on technique. Verbal only.
- No clinical policy statements. Refer to "the threshold" or "the line," not to a policy number.
- If a participant raises a policy question, say: "Good catch — that goes to the unit educator after the sim." Do not improvise policy in the sim.
- If a participant raises a safety concern about a real patient, stop the sim and hand off to the charge nurse.

## What the Proctor Does Not Do

- Does not fill out a formal evaluation form.
- Records staff participant names only for attendance and trend review; does not record names against a competency decision.
- Does not share the sheet outside the unit leadership and CCO review.
