Association for Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPiH)

ASPiH is a professional membership body for simulated practice in healthcare. They bring together a diverse community of educators, clinicians, researchers, technologists, patients, and system leaders who share a commitment to advancing high-quality, ethical simulation across health and care.

Their members work across universities, healthcare organisations, training programmes, industry, and patient safety initiatives. Together, they use simulation to support learning, workforce development, innovation, and cultural and systems-level change.

ASPiH plays a leading role in strengthening simulation as a recognised and coherent field. Through their standards, accreditation, professional development framework, and collaborative networks, they support individuals and organisations to deliver safe, impactful simulated practice and to embed simulation as a continuous capability within education and healthcare systems.
