When recent UAB biomedical engineering graduate Bhumi Patel began her capstone project, she and her teammates were tasked with solving real-world problems for real-world stakeholders. Their client? UAB Clinical Simulation.
Each year, UAB Clinical Simulation hosts interprofessional Code Blue simulations to sharpen teamwork, communication and life-saving skills. This summer, internal medicine residents, registered nurses and respiratory therapists stepped into a simulated hospital environment to practice ACLS in real time.
When Allyson Garrett stepped into her role as education and employee health nurse at Russell Medical Center in 2022, she was eager to find new ways to prepare her team for the realities of patient care.
In simulation design, the setting isn’t just a backdrop; it’s part of the lesson. That’s why we take our cameras straight into the environments where the real work happens.
