As a 20 year Nephrology Nurse, I’ve seen first hand the gap between theory and practice.
Those working in the specialized field of Dialysis, understands that a patient’s condition can become critical in an instance and the healthcare provider must be equipped to intervene.
While prevention is always priority, inevitably complications will occur.
Anticipating that there can be complications should always be at the forefront of the healthcare providers mind.
Recognizing and acknowledging that something is wrong based upon the patient’s presentation is the second step to managing complications.
Intervening promptly is step three and absolutely critical to saving lives.
The only way to become proficient in managing complications is experiencing complications.
Imagine being new to the field of Dialysis, not only are you tasked with learning the complexities of the dialysis machine, the dialysis process, but also managing the patient on dialysis.
Speaking from experience, it can be quite frightening.
So now imagine being able to learn the function of the dialysis machine, the process of dialyzing a patient and being able to practice managing dialysis complications all before encountering a patient.
With the 3 in 1 Dialysis Simulator, the Learner can gain proficiency and confidence without putting the patient at risk.
Skills learned in the simulation setting can transfer seamlessly to the bedside.
S-WORLD’s mission is to bridge the gap between theory and practice, fostering an environment of Zero Harm to patients.
