EMS Showcases Exciting Innovative Technology to Improve Medical Simulation Training at IMSH 2011

(EXTON, PA, January 23, 2011) – Education Management Solutions (EMS), the leader in simulation management software and audio-video technology, today introduced its latest products: SIM-EMR, SIMXpress, and Check-in Kiosk at the International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH) 2011 conference, Jan 23-25, in New Orleans, LA.

EMS’ SIM-EMR is a simulated electronic medical records application that prepares both nursing and medical students to chart electronically, similar to what they would encounter in a real clinical setting. Training on SIM-EMR will provide many benefits when students practice as physicians and nurses. Physicians will be able to minimize duplicate tests by seeing what other physicians have ordered; view past visits to improve patient care; and avoid legibility problems with other doctors’ handwriting.

Similarly, nurses would be able to eliminate duplicate order entries, provide more legible progress
notes for nurses on succeeding shifts, spend less time documenting so that there is more time at the bedside, and have access to a more structured and organized note system for greater clarity.

EMS’ SIMXpress, a robust simulation management solution with digital AV recording capability on wheels, allows students to receive enhanced didactic teaching of medical intervention concepts, patient safety, and real-world medical outcomes through repetition, measurement, skills assessment, and debriefing. SIMXpress provides a range of benefits to streamline and enhance any medical simulation-training program.

Many simulation and clinical skills centers are required to justify their need for the space, equipment, and personnel that will provide students the optimal learning environment and experience. Keeping track of who is using the simulation center and for what duration has become a challenge. EMS’ Check-in Kiosk automates the manual, labor-intensive, paper-based processes that are prone to errors. The Check-in Kiosk allows institutions to collect and trend room usage and equipment utilization data quickly and easily, satisfying both internal and external clients' requirements for usage reports that result in timely payment.
