[Health simulation, access to somatic care for people with ASD]

The clinical characteristics of people with autism spectrum disorders can make it difficult for them to access care, including treatment and medical imaging examinations. Simulation-based learning can facilitate the performance of a CT scan, as in the case of Irène, who was able to adopt the expected body positions thanks to this intervention.

[Health simulation in initial training: a device for the benefit of learners]

Three collaborative action-research projects have been carried out at the Institut de formation interhospitalier Théodore-Simon in Neuilly-sur-Marne (93) since the implementation of health simulation in nursing training. Their descriptions show the interest and the advantages of this pedagogical method and of the different "action pedagogies" which result from it for the nursing learners.

[Healthcare simulation: a powerful method]

Simulation in healthcare has been particularly developed since the report commissioned by the French National Authority for Health (Haute Autorité de Santé), which adopted the motto: "Never the first time on the patient". Ten years later, where are we with simulation-based learning? Is the term still being used appropriately? For whom is it intended and how does simulation-based learning allow for a multidisciplinary approach?

[How digital technology is revolutionising apprenticeships]

Digital technology is now an integral part of health training, offering many possibilities to diversify teaching methods. The apprenticeship has changed in a few years. Its challenges, means and methods are evolving and adapting to objectives which remain the same: to train autonomous, reflective and adaptable caregivers to give excellent quality care.

[Teamwork in a paediatric mobile emergency and intensive care service]

A paediatric mobile emergency and intensive care service team comprises several professionals with complementary skills. The cohesion of a team, as well as the listening and communication skills of each of its members, allow it to respond in the best possible way to emergency situations. Feedback sessions on practice and simulation exercises enhance teamwork.
