Key details
Professor Sharon M Weldon
Associate Head for Research and Knowledge Exchange; Centre Lead for Professional Workforce Development; Professor of Healthcare Simulation and Workforce Development
Professor Sharon Weldon is an internatioanlly renowned Professor of Healthcare Simulation and Workforce Development. She leads the Centre for Professional Workforce Development and the Simulation Group, and is Associate Head for Research and Knowledge Exchange in the School of Health Sciences within the University of Greenwich. She holds honorary positions with Imperial College London and Barts Health NHS Trust, collaborating on research and inputting on their programmes. Sharon is also a registered general nurse with experience in emergency and trauma paediatric operating theatres. Sharon has specialised as an infectious disease nurse working in a specialised unit whilst further specialising in TB and HIV.
Her non-conforming application of simulation as a method has helped generate new systems of care, identified how care is perceived, tested new policies and interventions, and informed decision-making, all whilst engaging stakeholders not usually involved in such processes (patients, public, lay members). She has developed surgical team training based on empirically evidenced communication models and developed innovative simulated manikins with artists and industry-partners. She was part of the Imperial College's Centre for Engagement and Simulation Science's pioneering research on sequential (care pathway-based simulations) and distributed (low cost, portable simulation equiptment) simulation. This work has received funding from notable funders such as the Economic and Social Research Council, the Wellcome Trust, and the Arts and Humanities Research Council and won several national and international awards. Her body of work in relation to simulation challenges the wider industry fixation upon concepts such as fidelity and its relevance, questioning the established knowledge and its important in generation change and impact.
She is an executive committee member for the Association for Simulated Practice in Healthcare (ASPiH), and has contributed to global white papers on simulation for patient safety, and is an Associate Editor for the International Journal of Healthcare Simulation. More recently, she has been consulted by regulatory bodies on the use of simulation in practice and education which has subsequently resulted in regulatory changes.
She has drawn on her research and knowledge of field to develop a unique Masters programme in Interprofessional Healthcare Simulation. Alongside this, she has developed team communication train-the-trainer pachages based on her empirical research of communication in operation theatres. This research received global acclaim for its identification of the affect that music playing, non-vocal responses and positioning has on communication amongst teams. This resulting training package has been used in both the UK and USA to train surgical teams and has changed policies around the playing of music during surgical procedures.
She co-leads the Greenwich Learning and Simulation Centre (GLASC), which has won awards such as the Zenith Global Health, Clinical Education and Research Award, and Outstanding Team of the Year Award (2022), the University of Greenwich Outstanding Team of the Year Award (2023), and more recently is among the final four nationally to be shortlisted for the University Alliance Innovation Award (result pending Sept 2023).

Research / Scholarly interests
Sharon's research, teaching and knowledge exchange activity focuses on the healthcare workforce and in particular, areas of healthcare simulation, and surgical communication. These are developing fields that she has been at the forefront of helping to forge. Her work on music and communication in the operating theatre was the first of its kind to address (through empirical evidence) hierarchical issues related to music amongst surgical teams and has received international recognition and acclaim, as well as having a direct impact on surgical team practices in the USA. Similarly, her work on healthcare simulation has helped to recognise and develop new uses and approaches to simulation that goes beyond traditional raining and is transformative in nature and progressive in design. Although in its infancy when she began this innovative work with the Imperial College Centre for Engagement and Simulation Science, this approach to simulation is growing rapidly.
Her work has had far-reaching impact. For example, one of her papers ‘Music and Communication in the Operating Theatre’ received substantial global media attention. She was invited to give live interviews to major media outlets; including BBC Breakfast, The BBC radio 4 Today Programme, and BBC World News. In addition, it was reported in all global major newspapers, was Wiley’s #1 Best of Nursing 2015, and paper of the day winner at the RCN’s International Research Conference, Glasgow, 2014. In relation to this research, US Patient safety (Quick Safety) and surgical bodies (American Association of Surgical Physician Assistants) have changed their policies and guidelines. A related paper on communication in operating theatres has also been included in the NICE Evidence Search.
Her work on Transformative forms of Simulation has helped to inform Clinical Commissioning Groups policies on integrated care by engaging with primary and secondary care stakeholders in developing new approaches to integrated care through simulation; the co-designed situating of a new diagnostic breath test for oesophageal cancer within a care pathway that was simulated to oesophageal cancer survivors; the simulated re-creation of the operating theatre over a 100-year period to engage the public and healthcare professionals around the future of surgical ethics, technology, culture and patient advocacy; and to address the experience of care through the simulated replication and comparison of a three-Michelin starred restaurant (the Fat Duck) and a day surgery unit, to name but a few.In addition, it has received many awards and accolades, including: nomination for best research at SESAM conference, 2018, workshop winner at the ASPiH conference, 2017, poster competition winner at HENWL conference, 2016 (£500 prize), and an invitation to do a TEDx talk.
Throughout her career Sharon has been involved in and led on a variety of research projects including a prognostic study for latent TB detection; an ethnomethodological study investigating communication in operating theatres using video recordings; a study investigating the training of new social interactions strategies to operating teams through the medium of simulation; a study developing the concept of Sequential Simulation (simulated care pathways) and its applications; a study on the use of Low-cost, portable equipment and backdrops providing 'realistic enough' recreations of clinical settings for pedagogical activities (Distributed Simulation); and studies looking at the use of simulation for engagement and educational purposes between clinicians, professionals and experts of all-kinds, publics and patients, to involve, co-design and co-produce healthcare related outcomes; to name but a few.
Sharon draw's on a range of methodologies (gained through her varied research experience) to address her research questions to ensure the right method is used for the research needs and to ensure the generation of impact in practice.Additionally, her research on simulation has generated a range of teaching and training materials including a model for Sequential Simulation; a surgical team training course that has been implemented at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (as part of a Trust-wide initiative on human factors training), Buckinghamshire New University, and Tulane Medical School, USA; as well as the co-development of simulation learning technologies. She has also written chapters for simulation-based education and simulation-based research guidance books, and is currently writing two new books.
