Desert Island Sims 🏝️ - What 3 Items Would YOU Bring?

Episode 63

Wednesday, December 10, 2025 • Duration 28:08

Strap in for one of the most imaginative episodes of SimCast yet. In this Desert-Island-Discs-inspired simulation challenge, Lawrence and Tony face a dramatic scenario: the plane taking them to an international simulation conference has crash-landed. With only two minutes to grab equipment, they must choose three essential pieces of simulation kit to build a functioning sim centre on a desert island… plus one luxury item.

Whether you’re a simulation technologist, clinical educator, paramedic, ODP, or simply love creative approaches to sim-based education, this episode is packed with insights and humour.

Why Every University Needs a Simulation Centre Manager

Episode 62

Wednesday, November 26, 2025 • Duration 50:12

In this epsidoe, Tony and Lawrence sit down with Nick Turton, Simulation Centre Manager at the University of Nottingham’s Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences. Nick oversees a highly evolved simulation ecosystem, including a faculty-wide clinical skills service, a specialist technical workforce, and a 100-strong simulated patient network.

Together, we explore what a Simulation Centre Manager actually does, why the role is vital for universities, and how strategic leadership, governance, and financial management underpin high-quality simulation-based education. From VR labs to mannequin maintenance, student experience to long-term planning, Nick offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at how large-scale simulation centres really operate.

If you’ve ever wondered how simulation infrastructure is built, sustained, and future-proofed, this is one to catch.
