SmartSimulator

Your simulated hands-on experience with your medical equipment​​​​​​​

In the healthcare sector, system and clinical workflows are becoming increasingly complex, requiring digital technologies to develop a skilled workforce. At the same time, safeguarding utilization of your equipment and high patient throughput are key to the financial success of your department. Given the speed at which technology evolves, traditional training methods at the scanner do not provide the flexibility for staff to gain the required hands-on experience. Therefore, the learning phase for employees stretches over a long period of time, preventing the equipment from being used to its full potential from the start. Additionally, blocking the medical device for training purposes in lower patient throughput and reimbursement rates combined with high costs due to a lack of equipment and staff availability.

Overview

SmartSimulator self guided

SmartSimulator allows your staff to train and practice on a simulated version of a medical device from Siemens Healthineers to reduce ramp-up times for new devices, workflows, and your workforce. It enhances confidence by providing staff with extensive training possibilities using the equipment and latest imaging applications as also practicing protocol handling, while keeping your daily operations up and running. At the same time, continuous device utilization and high patient throughput will help boost the performance of your institution.

  • Enhance confidence by providing staff with hands-on experience using a virtual medical device to improve the scanning efficiency of each individual 
  • Increase utilization of medical equipment and IT solutions with shorter ramp-up times for devices and employees to keep your daily operations running for higher throughput 
  • Boost performance at lower cost by leveraging innovative technology for better scan and protocol handling practice on simulated, cloud-based medical device interfaces
