Monash University, Medicine Nursing and Health Sciences

Monash University, Medicine Nursing and Health Sciences is proud to be a sponsor of SimTecT Health 2009. Through Associate Professor Brendan Flanagan, Monash has an ongoing association with the SimTecT Health conference and the Australian Society for Simulation in Healthcare. The Faculty is also at the forefront internationally of simulation based research thanks to the work of Professor Debra Nestel.

Monash recognises the increasing importance of simulation in healthcare for education and research purposes, and because of the contribution of simulation to Patient Safety. The Faculty has recently established the Monash Simulation Network to coordinate simulation-based activities across the entire Faculty, which extends throughout Victoria and also includes the Monash campus in Malaysia.

The Faculty plans to establish partnerships with other institutions to address clinical placement challenges, and to establish inter-professional learning and research opportunities. Monash also intends to form industry partnerships for the advancement of simulation technologies. In February 2010, Monash is proudly hosting the Harvard Advanced Simulation Instructors Course in Melbourne.

Conference Sponsors

National Health Workforce Taskforce, Speaker Sponsor




National Health Workforce Taskforce

Health Workforce Australia (HWA) was established by COAG to deliver a comprehensive health workforce reform package to enable the workforce to better respond to the evolving care needs while maintaining the quality and safety of services.

As part of the health workforce reform package, COAG announced that funding would be available to build new or enhance current Simulated Learning Environments (SLE). The project will be managed by HWA (NHWT in the interim) to enable equitable access across Australia to a range of SLEs. The distribution and configuration of the SLEs will be finalised following a national planning process.

Greater access to simulation training can expand the capacity of the health and education systems to provide clinical training though alternative training encounters, enhance the effectiveness of existing training by accelerating clinical skills and developing non-technical clinical skills and will contribute to the maintenance of skills and re-training for health professionals.

The National Health Workforce Taskforce are sponsoring Peter Dieckmann.
