Explore the iSim Library: PPE
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) use can feel routine, but contamination often happens during the small steps—what you touch, what you remove first and where your hands go next.

Some UAB Medicine clinical areas will be transitioning from the Lifepak 20 to the Lifepak 35 monitor/defibrillator. To support this transition, iSim is developing brief, interactive learning resources to help staff become familiar with key device functions.
Looking for a brief, interactive learning experience to support your team’s education needs? The iSim library includes a growing collection of virtual simulation topics designed to reinforce clinical decision-making, patient safety practices, equipment use and specialty workflows.
As simulation-based education continues to grow, one ongoing opportunity is finding flexible ways to connect people with high-quality learning resources when and where they need them.
The Patient Mobility and Fall Prevention iSim places learners alongside a hospitalized patient as she moves through common care activities.
Virtual simulation continues to evolve, and immersive technology offers an exciting opportunity to build on what already works.
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.
Our pain communication simulation places learners in a realistic recovery-room scenario where assessment, explanation and response matter as much as clinical interventions.
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.
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.
