Where does Healthcare Simulation take place?

How does Healthcare Simulation work?

Simulation tools fill the gap between theory and practice by immersing the learner in a realistic, dynamic, and complex setting without the fear of distressing the patient. 

• Task trainers and procedures simulators to practice specific skills and develop manual dexterity 
• Human patient simulators: Low-fidelity and high-fidelity mannequins for training physical examination, invasive procedures, CPR, as well as countless clinical scenarios.
• Softwares for improving student’s clinical reasoning skills through remote simulation training.

Who benefits from Healthcare Simulation?

Everybody can benefit from using simulation:  

• First responders: law enforcement officers, paramedics, EMT’s and firefighters 
• The entire health care team: from undergraduate students and residents to nurses, physiotherapists, and doctors from various disciplines.
• Community: teaching First Aid to students, teachers, drivers, etc. 

Why is Healthcare Simulation important?

Regarding the concern for the patient’s safety, medical education has undergone significant changes all over the world. 

It resulted in innovative curricula that stress the importance of proficiency in several clinical skills by healthcare graduates rather than mere acquisition of knowledge. 

Simulation-based learning enhances the efficiency of the learning process in a controlled and safe environment. 

What is Healthcare Simulation?

Healthcare Simulation is any educational activity that utilizes simulation aides to replicate clinical scenarios, providing a learning model to complement traditional education.  

Simulation tools serve as an alternative to real patients and develop health professionals’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes while protecting patients from unnecessary risks.
