UAB Clinical Simulation develops, delivers, and supports procedural, immersive, and systems simulations carefully designed for learners. Our team of skilled professionals collaborates with content experts from the various involved professions to deliver valuable, high-quality simulation events.
Simulation is a proven training strategy for all members of the health care team. The simulated setting provides a psychologically safe environment for care providers to practice procedures and high-risk clinical situations. Simulation not only improves patient safety, but contributes to the financial health of UAB Medicine.
For these and many other reasons, we will always advise you to “SimFirst”, no matter the procedure, event, space or process.
UAB Clinical Simulation joined UAB Medicine Workforce Development at Barber Motorsports Park March 27 to help steer the Hands-Only CPR Challenge, an interactive, hands-on activity station pitting participants against the clock to perform one minute of chest compressions. Their patients? Healthcare manikins equipped with real-time feedback technology.
In collaboration with the Center for Patient Flow’s Conflict Response Team, UAB Clinical Simulation conducted an in situ (on-site) Code Q simulation at UAB Highlands to evaluate and support the implementation of an expanded de-escalation response model with acute inpatient care settings.
UAB Clinical Simulation is known for equipping learners with confidence, teamwork and hands-on experience. Sometimes, however, that mission becomes a bit more literal.
