Laerdal Services
We understand that sustaining your simulation training programs can sometimes be challenging...
Laerdal’s highly trained Educational Services Specialists, and Technical Service Engineers, offer a range of Services designed to help sustain your simulation programs for ongoing success and to help make the most of your investment.
The challenges
Research studies have shown that simulators and manikins are often underutilised. The two main reasons are equipment downtime and lack of trained staff.
Equipment downtime is a result of non-operational or poorly functioning equipment. This causes disruptions to productivity and ultimately, learner outcomes.
Availability of trained staff can mean the difference between a successful and unsuccessful simulation program. Those who are capable of both operating equipment as well as running simulations to meet the education objectives of the curriculum are often a scarce resource.
Whether due to equipment downtime, untrained staff, or both, the underuse of simulators represents a poor return on investment.
Achieving success
To realize the full potential of a simulation program, equipment must be operational at all times and staff must know how to operate it. It is also critical that staff learns how to integrate simulation into their curriculum and training programs.
Achieving the greatest value from your investment is two-fold. Keeping simulators operational allows for more training time per staff/student. Staff that is trained to effectively implement educational objectives is the most valuable return on investment of all – resulting in improved learner outcomes and, most importantly, more lives saved.

The benefits of simulation services
1. Improve productivity
Productivity can be defined as doing the right things in the right way. Once you ensure your equipment and staff are operating effectively, you will be able to improve the productivity of your simulation training.
2. Increase Utilization
Teaching your faculty and students to use simulators to the full potential is essential. Having competent staff to implement your training programs can be facilitated by systematic learning strategies such as the Circle of Learning and Peer-to-Peer simulation training.
3. Reduce downtime
Optimally maintained equipment and properly trained staff can significantly reduce avoidable downtime and help maximize the effectiveness of planned downtime resulting in substantial cost and time efficiencies.
How Laerdal can help
