Patient Safety by Low-Tech Simulation

Project Lead(s): Patricia Livingston

Our project, “Patient Safety by Low-Tech Simulation” will develop a medical simulation centre in Rwanda that teaches resuscitation, teamwork, communication, and advanced clinical skills using low-tech simulation. This robust learning environment will train health care professionals in essential clinical skills without risk to patients. This teaching approach will improve patient safety and save lives.
