Simulation center

What do you mean by simulation?

Simulation is an active learning approach that allows skills to be developed in a safe and realistic environment. It recreates situations inspired by everyday life—whether clinical, organizational, or relational—in order to promote reflection, communication, and teamwork.

Different methods can be used depending on the learning objectives, the skills to be developed, and the desired level of realism. These include:

· In situ simulation, carried out directly in the workplace;

· Procedural simulation, focused on practicing a specific action or technique;

· Role-playing, which explores communication and collaboration;

· high-fidelity simulation, using mannequins and immersive technologies;

· virtual simulation, which relies on interactive digital environments.

Simulation promotes the transfer of knowledge into practice. By allowing participants to experiment, reflect, and adjust their actions in a risk-free environment, it reinforces learning and helps improve staff competence and patient safety.

Program development

Our team is available to assist you with development and simulation at each of the following stages:

1. Clarification of needs:

We begin by identifying a training need or a practical issue based on objective data, surveys, or interviews that may indicate a need for training.

2. Needs analysis:

This involves identifying gaps between current practice and desired practice based on clinical or organizational data in order to plan relevant and targeted training.

3. Defining learning objectives:

Learning objectives are formulated based on training needs and focused on developing the skills necessary for practice.

4. Training design:

The optimal simulation modality is selected, scenarios are developed according to the defined objectives, and teaching materials are determined.

5. Training delivery:

The activity takes place in an organized setting, under the supervision of competent trainers and in appropriate safe conditions. It can be offered as a single session or as part of a longitudinal program.

6. Evaluation and feedback:

The impact of the training is evaluated among participants (knowledge, skills, attitudes) and, where possible, based on objective data from the departments concerned. The results and comments collected are used to adapt and optimize the training.
