I’m Julie Messina, founder and CEO of Patient Performance.
Running a sim center or an SP program is tough. Believe me, I know and have been in the trenches before. But it doesn’t all have to be tough. Patient Performance can help make your center run more smoothly and ensure you can rise to whatever challenges your faculty and learners throw your way. Let’s work together to make it better for you and for your learners and partners.
I earned a master’s degree in International Health Promotion from the University of Sussex in Brighton, England, and it was this work that helped shape my view of the wider role of healthcare. I believe that it takes proper training for healthcare professionals AND a well-informed patient population to ensure the best possible outcomes. Patient Performance is where these two aspects of healthcare meet.
I’ve worked across UNC on simulations and SP events, including the Schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Public Health, and Education; and UNC Healthcare, and I have provided SP services for RTI, sub-contracting for the CDC to provide training for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
With over a decade of experience in adult and medical education and assessment, I can help you grow the program that your learners need and your staff deserve, ensuring events run smoothly. We can design projects to work within most budgets.
Maybe more stuff on Admissions, med school sims, quote from RTI. Make a case for saving money, maybe trying to figure out roughly how much I first saved then made for UNC by clearing the calendar.
My Approach
Let’s talk.
What is your center like now? Let’s talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly. Then let’s figure out how you can create or finish building the center you want.
It begins with your center, your team, and your goals.
Let’s get to work.
I’ll be your partner in this journey, doing work that can feel thankless and invisible. But your work matters, and making your center work better will benefit everyone, most importantly your learners’ future patients.
