Virtual Emergency Training: Preparing Medical Staff for Extreme Scenarios

The Meta Centre is a virtual emergency unit designed to train medical staff for large-scale emergencies. It uses simulated scenarios with dummies to teach difficult procedures and improve diagnosis skills. The training includes handling extreme situations, such as delivering tragic news and managing emergency room patients. Real-life simulations are recorded, and feedback is provided by trauma experts. The facility allows trainees to make mistakes in a safe environment, contributing to improved treatment and saving lives. Over 11,000 trainees have benefited from this training in the past two years.
