The UA Little Rock Center for Simulation Innovation in the School of Nursing has been internationally recognized for excellence in nursing simulation education.
The Center for Simulation Innovation (CSI) has received the 2023 Frontline Simulation Champion Excellence Award from the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL), an association dedicated to advancing the science of healthcare simulation.
Nursing faculty members Joanna Hall, director of simulation, and SarahBeth Phillips, assistant clinical professor, received the award on behalf of the UA Little Rock CSI team during the 2023 INACSL Annual Conference held June 14-17 in Providence, R.I.
This award is given in recognition of the high regard the simulation team has earned from their peers, colleagues, and others who submitted praise-filled comments and a strong letter of support with their INACSL nomination.
“It is indeed an accomplishment to be singled out by the people you work with, and we celebrate this important milestone with you,” said Gayle Stegall, chair of the INACSL Awards Sub Committee. “We are proud of your unique contributions for our simulation community of practice and for the ways you influence and spearhead excellence in simulation.”
