Practising for emergencies in Vienna’s hospitals

- EN - DE
One of Austria's largest medical training centres, the University Simulation Center Vienna, opened its doors about a year ago. Following many postponements due to the pandemic, the Simulation Center is being presented to the public for the first time on the 15th of September. "There is no doubt that medical staff routines will always be disrupted by emergencies which are unpredictable. In an emergency, every action counts and the teams have to be able to work in concert. It is not only possible but essential to practise this thoroughly in advance," says Vienna's City Councillor for Health, Peter Hacker. "We have created a perfect environment for doctors, nurses and other medical professionals to do this at Floridsdorf Hospital," says Hacker. Covering a total area of 1,000 m2 and equipped with state-of-the-art simulation technology, the centre offers numerous realistic simulation scenarios and varied training options.
