SWOT Analysis
Broward College Simulation Center
by Djouleta Khamjoueva
Abstract
This writer conducted a SWOT analysis on Broward College Health Sciences Simulation Center (Sim Lab). With the help of healthcare simulation labs, such as the Sim Lab, healthcare educational facilities are now able to implement measures to improve their students’ educational experience. The tools that are provided at the Sim Lab are very beneficial to both the healthcare facility members and the future healthcare providers, as the experience gained through simulated scenarios will result in improved patient outcomes. The Sim Lab has implemented measures to improve the experience of future healthcare workers by giving them opportunities to gain hands-on experience.
The SWOT Analysis of the Sim Lab identifies key aspects of its strategic plan and offers suggestions and recommendations for process improvement.
