A multi-centre prospective cohort study, which examines the effect of a team training educational intervention for pediatric resuscitation team members. The study uses simulation-based training as the primary teaching method to evaluate the effect of team training on team performance, as measured by adherence to PALS guidelines. By re-testing participants again after 6-12 months, the study will examine long-term retention of these skills. Hypothesis: adherence to PALS guidelines is improved following team training of pediatric resuscitation team members.

The investigator anticipates sustained, improved team performance after team training. If this proves to be true, the long-term goal is to disseminate this training widely across Canada, in order to benefit all paediatric resuscitation teams, and ultimately their patients.
