Simulation in Health Sciences Education

Key medical institutions have joined forces to liberate health education from its current physical limitations and have secured $4.5 million to develop online teaching tools that can be accessed via the national broadband network.

The HPSN2012 Wrap Up

EXPERIENCE SIMULATION TO THE FULLEST. REAL TIME. REAL STUDENTS. LIVE ACTION.

Every year, for the last 16 years, a spectacular group of people from all over the world and from every level of healthcare come together to exchange ideas on how to push the envelope of medical simulation to improve learning, competency and ultimately, save lives.

At HPSN2012, we had over 1,000 medical simulation experts join us for three action-packed days of learning with speakers, training courses, hands-on sessions and fun, not to mention the Poster session, METI Cup at HPSN and The 2nd Annual METI Awards. It was by far our most ambitious, well attended and successfull HPSN to date. Thanks to all our attendees and for those who were not able to attend...we hope to see you next time at HPSN2013.

This interprofessional conference celebrates the latest innovations and best practices in health care simulation today. This year the conference theme is:

Learning, practicing and working together.

In healthcare today, teams of nurses, doctors, pharmacists, paramedics, dentists, physiotherapists and all allied health professions work together to ensure patient safety is at the center of care. This conference will bring together these healthcare professionals from across the Asia – Pacific region and the world to debate, discuss explore, share and network how we can learn, practice and work together during this interactive conference. One conference highlight will be the CAE Healthcare (METI) Cup where teams of professionals will compete in small teams. These teams will care for an acute patient using an interactive human patient simulator.
