Tulane SIM Center recognized by Becker's Healthcare

The Center for Advanced Medical Simulation and Team Training at Tulane University School of Medicine has been recognized by Becker's Healthcare as one of 93 hospital and health system simulation and education programs to know. The annual list honors programs that use advanced technologies and highly immersive simulations that closely replicate real-world scenarios. 

Tulane's SIM center has supported health professionals for more than 16 years and has trained more than 84,000 learners, including more than 57,000 medical students and 11,000 residents and fellows. The center offers 10 professional certifications, supported by dozens of high-fidelity patient simulators, task trainers, and virtual reality-based simulators.  

The center also partners with Tulane’s standardized patient program, which is one of the oldest in the country, to deliver hybrid simulations that combine standardized patients with high-fidelity simulators, task trainers, and point-of-care ultrasound. 

Tulane’s simulation program has been accredited by the American College of Surgeons as a comprehensive program since 2011. See the full list from Becker's here.
