A message from the Australian Commission on Safety & Quality in Health Care
"It is increasingly clear that simulation - in all its many guises - is one of the keys to safety and quality in healthcare practice. The technology is with us now to allow doctors & nurses to get through much of their learning curve without subjecting real patients to the same stress. It is also an ideal means of testing skills as time goes by - without waiting for live mishaps to occur. As an informed consumer, I certainly want to be reassured that my surgeon can tie knots, and that the doctor doing my cardiac catheter isn't doing her first one."

A message from the Conference Convenors
The Organising Committee extends you the warmest invitation to attend SimTecT 2006 Healthcare Simulation Conference.
Since its inauguration in 2000, the Conference has evolved into a key forum for simulation in the healthcare industry; bringing together experts in technology, health care education, human factors, patient safety and quality improvement, to tackle the challenges faced by the healthcare industry in the new millennium.
The key theme of SimTecT 2006 is the role to be played by simulation in addressing patient safety challenges which face the complex delivery of healthcare in Australia. A stimulating and innovative program of presentations, panel discussions, interactive workshops and keynote speakers, is in the final stages of planning.
We look forward to seeing you at SimTecT 2006.
