On May 19th, the Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning (SCSIL) welcomed Indigenous youth leaders (First Nation, Inuit, Métis, and Native American) from the Eagle Spirit Camp for a half-day of hands-on workshops and activities organized by Dr. Kent Saylor of the McGill Faculty of Medicine.  During the morning lecture, a group of 25 students aged 13 to 17 years old attended a lecture by health care professionals to learn about careers in nursing and medicine.

Teaching Home Care in the Simulated Apartment

As the average age of the population rises, care is moving out of the hospitals and into the homes. Home care may be an option for patients who are recovering after a hospital stay, or for individuals who are dealing with an illness and want to remain at home for as long as safely possible to maintain their existing lifestyle and independence.

Transforming Health Care Systems – Let's Simulate

The majority role of simulation in health care has been focused upon education of clinicians, with respect to procedural, team-based and communications skills. Simulation centres now abound across the US, Canada and Europe, many of which comprise full scale facilities such as an emergency room, operating suites, outpatient clinic areas, hospital wards, and even patient homes.
