President Serzh Sargsyan today attended the opening of the Simulation
Education Center at Yerevan State University after M. Heratsi.
Accompanied by the RA Minister of Education and Science, Armen
Ashotyan, the Chair of the NA Standing Committee on Health Care,
Maternity and Childhood, Ara Babloyan and YSMU Rector Mikayel
Narimanyan, Serzh Sargsyan toured the newly-opened center of N1
University Clinical Hospital, familiarized with the opportunities of
the center founded as part of the reforms which have been implemented
in Armenia's higher education sector.
The Minister of Education and Science presented the implementation
process of the projects being carried out by the Armenia Higher
Education Competitive Innovation Fund and its spheres of activities.
He noted that with the opening of the simulation center, Yerevan State
Medical University is introducing a new method of medical education -
simulation education. This kind of innovative method allows students
to upgrade their practical skills and reduce the number of medical
mistakes during their professional activities both at the stages of
graduate and life-long education. The innovation project is generally
directed at substantially improving the quality and effectiveness of
medical education.
The simulation center involves four main directions - clinical skills,
reanimation, surgery and midwifery, and gynecology. The center is
equipped with necessary moulages, movers and computers installed with
educational programs. The YSMU has reviewed the educational programs
and has conducted retraining sessions. The full-fledged introduction
of simulation education at the YSMU is planned to launch in February
of 2015.
According to the executives, in case of necessity after the end of
the project a new video course available to other beneficiaries via
the university webpage will be designed. It is planned to organize
special retraining courses for lecturers and employees of the center on
a regular basis in order to involve the best international experience
and ensure reforms yield the best results.
