IMRS is an affiliated residency program of the University Of Washington School Of Medicine and, thus, we have access to the school’s online medical information resources.

RESOURCES AVAILABLE INCLUDE

• Up-To-Date and Dynamed
• Textbooks
• Full text journals
• Many others

The simulation lab on the PSHMC campus enables medical staff and students to experience lifelike medical situations through use of robotic mannequins.

The lab is a large space that includes a room for task trainers, an ICU bay and OR in addition to classroom space.

GOALS:

• Provide collaborative, team-based training for in-house code teams
• Practice managing emergent and life-threatening conditions in a safe, controlled learning environment
• Use sophisticated, high-tech human patient simulators to provide the learner with a more realistic experience
  • Manikins include infants, children, pregnant moms and life-like adults
  • Training scenarios can be pre-programmed into the manikins and customized to the level of the learner and repeated as needed for a consistent, quality educational experience
  • High-risk procedures can be practiced repeatedly using task trainers (LP model, thorax for thoracentesis, Central line manikin)

Our residency maintains an active blog with a repository of clinical information. It also includes program news, conference schedules, manuals and links to on call schedules and other critical programs or apps.
