Simulation in Medical Education
The center's mannequins can be programmed to speak, cry, blink, bleed and respond physiologically to medical intervention. A variety of clinical situations can be simulated in realistic settings. Stroke, cardiac arrest, asthma and obstructed airways are just a few of the challenging scenarios which allow the participants to experience state-of-the-art training with no risk to patients.
Among those who use the Simulation Center for training are:
- Medical Students
- Emergency Medicine Residents
- Nurses
- Respiratory Therapists
- Paramedics
- Emergency Medical Service Providers
- NYS Poison Center Staff
- Hospital Chaplains
- Other Medical and Surgical Specialties
