NorthShore University HealthSystem: Simulation-Based Training
Simulation-Based Training in Medicine and Surgery at the NorthShore Center for Simulation and Innovation (NCSI): Leading the Health Care Simulation Revolution
NCSI is leading the Health Care Simulation Revolution: Learn about the concepts of immersive simulation, simulation-based procedural skill acquisition, deliberate practice, and teamwork. Practice surgical and medical procedures without risk to patients; and see how simulation can enhance safety and save lives.
