Since then, more than 295 individuals from 10 countries have obtained <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr> certification. The <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr>-Advanced certification represents the continuation of professional development beyond the <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr>. Wong is one of only 16 individuals worldwide awarded the <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr>-Advanced certification.<\/p>\n<p>Only select healthcare simulation professionals earn this advanced professional recognition of specialized knowledge, skills, abilities, longevity and accomplishments in simulation. As leaders of excellence and innovation, the UH Translational Health Science Simulation Center brings real-life scenarios to the classroom so that students can gain experience, confidence and skills they need to provide quality care.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/2014\/02\/24\/real-drama-benefits-nursing-students\/\"><strong>VIDEO:<\/strong> Learn more about HealthCAST, a partnership between <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa&#8217;s nursing and theatre departments, that provides nursing students with realistic patient simulations.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&ldquo;Dr. Wong&#8217;s <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr>-Advanced certification ensures that our center maintains national and international standards of simulation education for our students,&rdquo; said <strong>Mary G.

The aim is to increase patient safety and quality of care when students graduate and enter the workforce.<\/p>\n<p>A key success factor for the center is  Wong&#8217;s comprehensive understanding of how to effectively utilize simulation to meet program outcomes and her ability to design programs to meet standards of healthcare simulation education. &ldquo;Having the <abbr>CHSE<\/abbr>-Advanced certification is a great honor and I feel great responsibility to ensure that every learner who comes to the center will leave with greater knowledge, experience and confidence,&rdquo; Wong said. &ldquo;This is important to me because it means that our community will be better served, one patient at a time.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Read the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/article.php?aId=6522\"><abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> M&#257;noa news release<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lorrie Wong, director of the <abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> Translational Health Science Simulation Center, recognized for completing national certification. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[782,189,167,9],"class_list":["post-24770","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-people","tag-medical-simulation","tag-nursing","tag-school-of-nursing-and-dental-hygiene","tag-uh-manoa","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24770"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24770\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":117513,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24770\/revisions\/117513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24770"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
