Investing in sophisticated medical simulation training equipment: Is it really worth it?

Abstract

The reason behind this article is to elucidate those points from authors personal perspective, as a trained engineer/physicist working in a Higher Education Institution, managing the operations of a medical simulation centre and facilitating medical simulation training courses for students from different disciplines. The acquisition of important life-saving skills, based on the fundamentals of a range of key physiological, biological, and pharmacological principles is paramount to nursing, medical and paramedical education.
