The IPL through sequential simulation resources support the facilitation of IPL tutorials for health students and health professionals. Most simulated learning interactions involve a single interaction between a health professional and a patient. Sequential simulation follows a patient's journey beyond this interaction, through the healthcare system. Each resource consists of two components: audiovisual case studies and a facilitator manual which can support an IPL tutorial.

AgingWell Hub has created an integrated journey map for those caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's and other demetias. The map can be used to identify opportunities to provide support and intervention for caregivers, and in turn, benefit their care recipients. The journey map follows the experiences of an unpaid family caregiver of an older adult with Alzheimer's disease.
