”I strongly believe that scientific societies play a key role in the professionalization process of any economic sector, or - in our case - scientific discipline … SESAM - Society for Simulation in Europe must play that role for simulation, not only promoting, facilitating and communicating science but also dictating standards, interacting with and guiding industry, and talking to government authorities.
This can only be achieved as a community where everybody makes a contribution, however small, and where simply being a member of the Society is an important contribution.”
As he takes over as President of SESAM - Society for Simulation in Europe, Pier Luigi Ingrassia emphasises the importance of a strong society promoting simulation in healthcare as he closes the Society’s most successful European meeting in Prague attended by over 1,300 people from 63 countries.
SESAM’s vision is improved healthcare through simulation. Enabling safe, patient-centred care delivered by a competent and confident healthcare workforce in a well-functioning healthcare system.
SESAM’s mission is to develop a sustainable inter-professional community of practice across Europe that strives to advance knowledge, improve quality, and promote the diffusion and access to healthcare simulation.
