iSim of the Month: Expanding Virtual Simulation with Immersive Technology
Virtual simulation continues to evolve, and immersive technology offers an exciting opportunity to build on what already works.
iSim of the Month: You gave feedback. We made changes.
Embedded in each iSim experience is a brief survey that allows learners to share what worked well and where improvements are needed. Over the past year, this feedback has been consistently positive, with many learners highlighting the relevance and realism of the simulations.
iSim of the Month: Pain, Perspective and the Patient Experience
Our pain communication simulation places learners in a realistic recovery-room scenario where assessment, explanation and response matter as much as clinical interventions.
Staffing Pool takes the win in 2025 Virtual Sim Room of Errors
This year’s Virtual Sim Room of Errors brought UAB Medicine’s commitment to patient safety to screens across the health system, allowing staff to explore a simulated care environment and identify potential safety hazards that can occur in everyday practice.
Clin Sim offers new VR equipment loan program
Virtual learning is more than a tool; it’s a reality. And a new VR equipment loan program from UAB Clinical Simulation will allow learners to sim virtually anywhere.
Start Strong: The Safety of Setup
When it comes to procedures, preparation is just as important as performance. Our newest iSim, Chest Tube Setup (Neonate), is designed to strengthen the skills of setting up for the procedure. From gathering and organizing equipment to ensuring safety checks are complete, this module highlights the essential steps that allow the clinician performing the procedure to focus fully on patient care.
On Location: Where Real Spaces Make Real Learning
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.
iSim of the Month: PPE gets a power-up
We’ve given our Personal Protective Equipment simulation a summer makeover—and it’s more than just a new look.
iSim: Your Feedback in Action
At UAB Clinical Simulation, we believe the best simulations are shaped by the people who use them. That’s why we’re excited to announce that our entire virtual simulation fleet has undergone a comprehensive makeover—driven directly by user feedback.
iSim: Patient Experience Communication
Communication plays a powerful role in shaping the patient experience—and this month’s featured module helps you sharpen that skill from multiple perspectives.
