Encounters - Standardized Patients, DCOM, OPFL

Standardized Patients (SPs) at the Center for Interprofessional Education and Simulation (CIPES) at Lincoln Memorial University-DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine (LMU-DCOM) in Orange Park, Florida, are integral to the education of future health professionals. SPs accurately and consistently portray specific patient types to help medical and other health profession students develop and refine their clinical skills in a safe, simulated environment. This role is crucial for ensuring students receive high-quality, hands-on training to provide optimal patient care.
