Introduction to the University Hospital Simulation-Based Education Platform

Learning medical practice through simulation: “Never try it on a patient for the first time”—the example of SimHU Nîmes, the university hospital simulation training platform of the Nîmes University Hospital and the Montpellier-Nîmes Faculty of Medicine.
Friday, March 30, 2018, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Lecture Hall No. 1, School of Medicine
As part of the Nîmes-Alès matches from March 27 to 30, 2018.

Practical simulation training has long been used in industry, particularly in “high-risk” sectors (transportation, aviation, etc.). The symposium aims to introduce attendees to the principles of simulation-based education in the healthcare field, its benefits for both professionals and patients, and the reasons why this practice is growing so rapidly in France today.
The recent history of the SimHU Nîmes platform and its current activities will also be presented, as will the plan to expand the center within the faculty, which is set to be renovated and expanded in the medium term.
The project will be presented through a short film of about ten minutes, shot locally, which will serve as an introduction and kick off the discussion.
A tour of the various simulation rooms, including a demonstration of the equipment (such as intelligent robots capable of simulating clinical scenarios), will be organized for the public in small groups (registration required). Finally, the public will be invited to participate in a pre-hospital emergency scenario.
A discussion with the speakers is scheduled to wrap up the morning in the auditorium.
