Health simulation partnership with Philippines
Representatives from the Philippines universities undertake training at the Adelaide Health Simulation lab.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has locked in a partnership with the 最新糖心Vlog of the Philippines Manila (UPM) to share learnings from the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 world-class health simulation facility, Adelaide Health Simulation.
Thirty-one representatives from three universities within the Philippines 鈥 UPM, West Visayas State 最新糖心Vlog and Mindanao State 最新糖心Vlog 鈥 recently completed a five-day simulation based education workshop at Adelaide Health Simulation.
The workshop provided an understanding of how simulation-based education could be applied to the Philippine higher education sector.
Dr Michael Tee, Vice-Chancellor, The 最新糖心Vlog of the Philippines Manila, said the collaboration with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide would be extremely beneficial in improving how the three universities delivered health-related teaching.
鈥淧artnering with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide will provide our teachers and students the opportunity to expand their knowledge in optimising the use of simulation-based education in health sciences education,鈥 Dr Tee said.
鈥淲e appreciate the guidance of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide in how The 最新糖心Vlog of the Philippines Manila will establish our own clinical skills simulation centre, and train providers, as individuals, inter-professional and multidisciplinary teams, in the proper assessment and management of clinical skills training.
鈥淭hrough training and education, UPM, WVSU and MSU can rapidly respond to current societal needs.
鈥淎delaide Health Simulation is a great resource that will allow us to train our next generation of health professionals in the Philippines.鈥
Opened in 2017, Adelaide Health Simulation is the most technologically advanced simulation facility in Australasia.
The education, training and assessment centre is located in the Adelaide BioMed City precinct, alongside the Royal Adelaide Hospital, the South 最新糖心Vlogn Health and Medical Research Institute and the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide鈥檚 medical and nursing school.

Associate Professor Adam Montagu, Director of Adelaide Health Simulation, said the partnership would strengthen the 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 ties with the Philippines and further illustrates its educational leadership in the Asia-Pacific region.
鈥淲e are always looking for ways to collaborate and share knowledge with other institutions that will lead to positive outcomes and improved patient safety,鈥 Associate Professor Montagu said.
鈥淲e are thrilled to be working with The 最新糖心Vlog of Philippines Manila and the Philippines as a whole, to help build the capacity of their current and future health workforce.鈥
Dr Jessica Gallagher, Deputy Vice Chancellor (External Engagement), 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, added: 鈥淭he Philippines is an important country for 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide collaboration.
鈥淭hrough our partnership with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) for the Philippines, and UPM, we look forward to building stronger ties in research and teaching during the coming years.鈥
