JOB SUMMARY

Standardized Patients (SPs) are trained to portray both staff and patient situations, serving as models for learners to train and test on medical, behavioral, and communication competencies. They perform standardized cases, including non-invasive physical exams, and assess learners from a patient/family perspective, providing objective feedback and using checklists or debriefing sessions as directed by faculty. SPs receive training in physical examination techniques, communication competencies and evaluating and giving constructive feedback to learners. SPs must be willing to maintain availability and flexibility to be “cast” for upcoming SP events based on specific case profiles requested by facilities in Baltimore, Randallstown and Westminster.

• Impact: Join a team that values innovation and outcomes, delivering life‑saving care to our youngest and most vulnerable patients.
• Growth: Opportunities for professional development, including tuition reimbursement and developing foundational skills for neonatal critical care leadership and advanced certification.
• Support: A culture of collaboration with resources like unit‑based practice councils and advanced clinical education support — improving both workflow efficiency and patient outcomes and allowing you to work at the top of your license.
