| John Vozenilek, MD FACEP Director, Northwestern McGaw Simulation Network
John A.Vozenilek, MD is currently an assistant professor of Emergency Medicine at the Feinberg School of Medicine of Northwestern University and an attending physician in the Evanston Northwestern Healthcare’s Division of Emergency Medicine. Dr. Vozenilek has substantial experience in medical education with both standardized patients and high-fidelity human patient simulation. He is the Chairman of the Simulation Interest Group for the Society of Academic Emergency Medicine, and is a member of that organization’s Task Force on Simulation. Dr Vozenilek is the Director of the Northwestern McGaw Simulation Network which serves to formalize existing collaborations between the several clinical simulation facilities at the McGaw member institutions, and allow a forum for jointly planning the future of simulation at Northwestern. He is the medical advisor for the Chicago testing center for Part 2 CS of the United States Medical Licensure Exam (USMLE). In this capacity, he is responsible for the implementation and refinement of standardized patient (SP)-based evaluation cases for high-stakes evaluation as well as the selection, training, and validation of the numerous SPs who work in this center. He has served in this role since April 2003. He is the principle investigator on the AHRQ funded project: “Simulation-Based Training Program to Augment Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Based Hand-off Tool.” That project seeks to reduce communication errors during patient hand-offs in the emergency department by implementing a patient-specific checklist based on an electronic medical record, and by testing the effect of companion simulation-based training. Dr. Vozenilek is co-investigator in the Emergency Medical Services Children’s Targeted [EMSCT] Issues Grant, “Development and Validation of a Simulator-Based Emergency Medicine Curriculum for Emergency Care Providers.” Dr Vozenilek has published in medical informatics and is the former Chair and current Councilor for the American College of Emergency Physician’s Informatics section. He is an Associate Editor for the AAMC’s MEDEDPORTAL Simulation collection.
