Medical simulation centers are an integral part of ensuring the quality of medical training. In the simulation centers students can acquire practical skills in conditions as close as possible to the real ones. It is at the stations of simulation centers that a student can demonstrate his readiness (or not readiness) to provide medical care independently.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the quality practical training of students and medical staff the very existence of simulation centers is not enough. It is important how these centers are equipped (availability of modern medical equipment), their staffing; specification of practical skills for each specialty; methods of assessing such skills\u201d.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It should be emphasized that the Swiss government, through the Ukrainian-Swiss project &#8220;Medical Education Development&#8221;, pays great attention to strengthening the education of general practitioners in Ukraine. That is why the Project is primarily working on the development of simulation training for future family doctors and nurses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Since 2019, the Project has been investing over UAH 15 million in the development of simulation training in six higher medical education institutions in Ukraine.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;The development of medical education with a focus on family doctors, nurses and health care managers is a key priority for the Swiss Embassy today. We have made a commitment over the next 10 years to support the development of medical education in Ukraine.. Ukraine has a great potential for medical education, having 17 medical universities and more than 140 medical education institutions. And these\u00a0 opportunities should be used for more effective and efficient training of doctors and nurses for the Ukrainian health sector and offering high quality education, recognised\u00a0 worldwide, also for international students\u201d,\u2014 said Priska Depnering-Nydegger, Deputy Head of Cooperation at the Embassy of Switzerland in Ukraine.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Laboratories of Clinical Skills for general practitioners are opening in: Rivne Medical Academy, Ternopil National Medical University, in Zhytomyr Medical Institute, in Kharkiv National Medical University, Lviv Medical Academy, in Chernivtsi in Bukovinian State Medical University.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;We are proud that Kharkiv National Medical University was selected as a pilot institution to participate in the Ukrainian-Swiss project &#8220;Medical Education Development&#8221; among the numerous applicants.
