Surgical Science
One of the ongoing discussions in medical education addresses whether practicing a procedure on a simulator can translate to improved patient outcomes. We know that simulation resources are used to hone healthcare team performance. Institutions have also documented the value of simulation training in providing learners with a risk-free environment where they can practice surgical techniques. Now, a recent University of Michigan study directly addressed the link between simulation and patient outcomes. Their study proves the hypothesis true: regular simulation training can measurably improve patient outcomes.

Aging simulation class is offered
The Dorchester Banner
As a community service, AHEC and the ESHC Auxiliary are offering a session of ASST training and “Ethics for Social Workers” at the Eastern Shore Hospital Center on January 22, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. ASST is based on the success of the GAIT (Geriatric Assessment Interdisciplinary Team) model. The ASST program is a hands-on workshop utilizing props, individual and group activities, and discussions to promote understanding, empathy, and sensitivity to the sensory losses of the elderly.

Madigan Army Medical Center clinicians introduced to post-sexual assault exam process
The Nisqually Valley News
Healthcare a person receives after a sexual assault is important and difficult — for the person seeking care and the provider who is tasked with not only taking care of their patient at a particularly traumatic time, but also to do so in a way that preserves any evidence for possible use in a future legal proceeding. Even clinicians who do not find themselves tasked with performing such an exam need to know enough about them to know how to support them.
