The corona pandemic has posed major challenges for teaching with simulated persons (SPs), which usually requires the physical presence of the participants. Within a short period of time, a large number of individual solutions were developed. The committee "Simulated Persons" of the Society for Medical Education has developed considerations and proposals in five areas to meet the qualitative challenges of the method. First and foremost, the safety of the SPs is at stake, both in terms of infection prevention and role-related stress to which the SPs are now exposed at home alone instead of the usual setting, where they are in a teaching building with the connection to the staff on site. Furthermore, it should be noted that the changed framework conditions also require a reflection on behalf of the learning objectives, since not all teaching scenarios with SPs can be transferred from a real setting to a digital environment. Furthermore, even under corona conditions, the constructive alignment must not be disregarded, i.e. the question of testability must be considered from the very beginning. Aspects of the technical infrastructure for all participants and compliance with data protection requirements must also be considered. Last but not least, the forced changes are also an opportunity to take a proactive approach to the topic of telemedicine in teaching.
新冠疫情大流行给模拟患者（SP）教学带来了重大挑战，因为这种教学通常需要参与者的亲身参与。在短时间内，开发了大量的个别解决方案。医学教育学会的“模拟患者”委员会在五个领域制定了考虑和建议，以应对该方法的定性挑战。首先，SP 的安全至关重要，无论是在感染预防方面，还是在角色相关的压力方面，现在 SP 都独自在家中面临着这些压力，而不是通常在教学大楼中与现场工作人员联系的环境。此外，应该注意的是，改变的框架条件也要求对学习目标进行反思，因为并非所有的 SP 教学场景都可以从真实环境转移到数字环境。此外，即使在新冠疫情条件下，也不能忽视建设性协调一致，即从一开始就必须考虑可测试性问题。还必须考虑所有参与者的技术基础设施方面和遵守数据保护要求。最后但同样重要的是，被迫的改变也是在教学中主动采用远程医疗的机会。
