The Cleveland Clinic Simulation and Advanced Skills Center (SASC) is dedicated to advancing clinical education, procedural competence, and patient safety through high-fidelity simulation-based learning. Equipped with high-fidelity manikins, advanced task trainers, and virtual reality technologies, SASC provides a safe, controlled environment where healthcare professionals, residents, and students can develop and refine their clinical and teamwork skills. The center supports interprofessional collaboration and promotes realistic training scenarios that mirror complex clinical environments.
A critical component of the center’s mission is its strong emphasis on scholarly activity. Through research, curriculum design, peer-reviewed publications, and academic presentations, simulation-based education evolves into an evidence-based discipline that contributes to both educational excellence and improved patient outcomes.
At the Simulation and Advanced Skills Center, scholarly work ensures that simulation practices are continuously evaluated, refined, and aligned with current medical standards and educational best practices. Scholarly engagement within SASC creates opportunities for academic collaboration, dissemination of knowledge, and leadership in the growing field of simulation science.
By integrating hands-on clinical training with rigorous academic inquiry, the Simulation and Advanced Skills Center not only equips learners with essential clinical competencies but also drives forward the development of simulation as a transformative tool in healthcare education. This dual focus on practice and scholarship underscores the Cleveland Clinic’s commitment to preparing healthcare professionals who are both technically skilled and academically informed, ultimately advancing patient care and safety across the healthcare system.
