Simulation Approach For Education and Training in emergencY

SAFETY is an initiative of 10 partners from 7 European countries (AT, DE, ES, IT, NO, PT, RO) that aims at renovating the educational offer in the field of Emergency Medicine. It will based on the adoption of simulation device, both physical (e.g. mannequin) and virtual patient. Universities and companies developing simulation tools will work together to design a new blended course composed of both theoretical and practical modules. Theoretical module will be delivered as e-learning, while practical module will consist of traditional class during which students will practice with simulation tools. The practical module will be recorded and appended to the e-learning output. Moreover, 2 additional training packages will be developed to address learners when dealing with exceptional situations consisting of situations in which lacks one of the fundamental component of the Emergency team, and when dealing with panicked patient’s relatives.The overall development of the training material will be addressed by relevant psychologist engaged in researches concerning the optimal Emergency team composition. At the end of the project, an Handbook to standardize the procedure to adopt the SAFETY outputs in order to guarantee the project sustainability and result exploitation beyond its lifetime.
