Bringing cutting-edge training to rural health care! 🚐
We're taking simulation training on the road with our new Rural Mobile Simulation project.
This innovative initiative ensures rural health care teams have access to high-quality simulation training, enhancing safe and effective care for patients and residents across Alberta.
With the support of the Covenant Foundation, this mobile simulation unit is equipped to deliver hands-on training directly to our rural acute and continuing care sites.
From managing complex scenarios like pediatric trauma to reflecting on everyday practices, staff can now refine their skills in their own care environments, building confidence and improving patient safety.
This project is part of our commitment to providing patient-focused care for every Albertan, no matter where they live. 💙
