Wong has been instrumental in the design and IPE<\/abbr> strategy of health sciences education programs across 糖心视频<\/abbr> and provides leadership for THSSC<\/abbr>. Under her direction, THSSC<\/abbr> was accredited by the Society for Simulation in Healthcare in 2014, and re-accredited in 2019, demonstrating the center\u02bbs commitment to offering health care simulation training programs and services that are measurable, accountable and of the highest quality.<\/p>\n

Wong was in the first class of 16 advanced healthcare simulation educators certified internationally, and currently assists in developing criteria for certification. As an expert in simulation learning, she has presented at numerous local, national and international conferences on the topic of simulation learning methodology and curriculum integration, and provides consultation and workshops to nursing faculty from across the globe.<\/p>\n

“Lorrie is an innovator and visionary leader in interprofessional education and technology supported learning,” said Mary G. Boland<\/strong>, SONDH<\/abbr> dean and professor. “She fosters team based interprofessional practice across 糖心视频<\/abbr> campuses, the major health organizations throughout the State of Hawaiʻi<\/span>, and universities in Asia. With the recognition and sustained support from HMSA<\/abbr>, interprofessional education and industry partnerships will contribute to improved health care delivery in Hawaiʻi<\/span>.”<\/p>\n
