Simulation training and continuing education provides students and professionals alike opportunities for learning life-saving procedures, developing interprofessional communication skills and using new technologies before practicing in patient care environments.
Healthcare Simulation Week (Sept. 18-22) focuses on the importance of simulation education for students and professionals to provide the best patient care. At WVU Health Sciences, training sessions are available for faculty and staff at STEPS.
To continue preparing healthcare professionals to best treat patients across the region, STEPS provides training opportunities for individuals across the state who teach skills in simulation.
Through a partnership between WVU Extension and West Virginia Public Broadcasting, young viewers across the state learn about healthcare career opportunities and training at STEPS as part of Energy Express on WVPB-TV.
