The Simulation and Interactive Learning (SaIL) Centre at Guy’s and St Thomas’ is leading the way in simulation-based education (SBE). The centre’s focus is providing realistic and safe learning environments in which to train healthcare staff and students.

The team includes multi-professional faculty that use state-of-the-art facilities to deliver high quality education and training. Healthcare staff and students participate in clinical simulation programmes focussed on patient safety and Human Factors (HF), as well as advanced clinical skills training.

Simulation-based educationhas been shown to increase patient safety and improve clinical and patient management skills, as training can occur away from the real clinical environment.
