Presenting at CAB 2025:
It is crucial for training health professional students to develop the knowledge and skills to manage situations where patients are agitated, especially in youths. Therefore, an interprofessional simulation experience was offered to support health professional students learn how to mitigate these situations in preparation for their clinical placements and future practice.
