The University of Miami – Jackson Memorial Health Center for Patient Safety uses a simulation operating room to teach medical students, residents, interns and the health care staff to reduce medical errors during the care and treatment of patients. The simulation operating room allows health care providers to be challenged with real life- threatening scenarios in a supervised teaching environment. The instructors use mannequins and actors to simulate these real-life medical emergencies. The program was recently featured in the Miami Herald.
