Teaching Home Care in the Simulated Apartment
As the average age of the population rises, care is moving out of the hospitals and into the homes. Home care may be an option for patients who are recovering after a hospital stay, or for individuals who are dealing with an illness and want to remain at home for as long as safely possible to maintain their existing lifestyle and independence.
On March 29, 麻豆区鈥檚 Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning launched a special Simnovate supplement of the British Medical Journal (BMJ) Simulation and Technology Enhanced Learning.聽 The event, held at the Omni Hotel in Montreal, featured an academic symposium as a sequel to last May鈥檚 highly successful Simnovate International Summit, which drew 150 鈥渟imnovators鈥 from around the world.
