2 Why partner with CAE Healthcare? World leader in healthcare education Today s hospitals are looking at the aviation model to adopt readily available and transferable safety innovations that have made the airline industry one of the safest in the world. CAE has a 60-year history as an innovator and a global leader in modeling, simulation and training for aviation. CAE is now leveraging its simulation and training capabilities in new markets such as healthcare. CAE Healthcare offers cutting edge learning tools that allow students and clinicians to practice in a risk-free simulated environment before treating real patients. CAE Healthcare s solutions include surgical and imaging simulation, curriculum, center management and highly realistic adult, pediatric and baby patient simulators. Benefits of simulation in healthcare CAE Healthcare simulators are the gold standard in healthcare education, providing an experiential learning environment where caregivers can practice clinical and critical thinking skills without the risk of harming a real patient. Our evidence-based Simulated Clinical Experiences (SCEs) utilize best practice standards and are designed for building clinical judgment and technical skills in an objective environment. Helping hospitals improve patient safety and outcomes CAE Healthcare offers healthcare organizations evidence-based, customizable, clinical education solutions that can help you improve patient safety and outcomes. Working with clinical partners and experts, we have developed courses and simulation solutions that allow you to safely access, develop and validate the competency of your clinical personnel and interdisciplinary teams. Better retention, results and quality Education plays a critical role in improving your healthcare institution. By delivering integrated education that combines e-learning, didactic and hands-on practice on healthcare simulators, our programs can help hospitals achieve a higher level of quality and satisfaction among their healthcare staff and ultimately, their patients. Improved performance and compliance Your goal is to continually ensure that your staff master clinical procedures, improve performance and improve compliance to hospital procedures, especially those designed to prevent hospitalacquired conditions and never events. As they improve, your institution can better serve your patients and work more efficiently and cost effectively. Our comprehensive clinical, technical and continuing education programs offer the means to efficiently assess teams, train staff on new procedures or tools, such as electronic medical record systems, and to perform trial runs of new techniques such as bar-coded medication administration or patient care. Effective and affordable programs tailored to any healthcare system CAE Healthcare offers a wealth of programs for the assessment, development and validation of healthcare professionals, ranging from new graduate nurses and surgical residents to experienced physicians and interdisciplinary teams. Training options can include a combination of e-learning, high fidelity simulators, simulated clinical experiences, coaching and onsite seminars delivered by our experienced education specialists. Our versatile subscription approach offers healthcare systems an affordable and easy solution to integrate scalable programs and grow them to meet changing needs. CAE is applying more than 60 years of flight simulation expertise to healthcare with a mission to improve patient safety

3 CAE Healthcare s breadth of simulation solutions is unmatched within the healthcare simulation industry. Benefits of CAE Healthcare Hospital Services Programs n Enhance care by helping staff feel more confident that they are performing the job correctly n Reduce costs by decreasing re-takes, eliminating unnecessary examinations and optimizing competency assessment and validation n Improve productivity by helping staff quickly learn what they need to know - from new skills to new specialties n Engage, develop and motivate staff by providing them with continuous personal development

4 Proven results and proven success Study: Nurse Residency Program at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center CAE Healthcare s Nurse Residency Program is based on a three-year study of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center s Nurse Residency Program, which proved to be effective in reducing the time for new nurse orientation, increasing the ability to recruit nurses, educating nurses to specific organizational policies and procedures, increasing retention and increasing clinical productivity and efficacy. n Implemented a standardized approach to orienting recent graduate nurses n Reduced two-year turnover rate of recent graduate nurses from 43% to 24% (cost avoidance of $3.5M) n Increased the quality of nursing applicants n Reduced vacancy rate from 23% to less than 3% n Decreased the length of the orientation process from 26 weeks to 12 weeks n Supported nurse residents in developing professional competence that supports safe, high quality patient care Beyea, S.C., Slattery, M.J., & von Reyn, L.J. (2010). Outcomes of a simulationbased nurse residency program. Clinical Simulation in Nursing, 6(5), e269-e175. Beyea, S.C., von Reyn (Kobokovich), L., & Slattery, M.J. (2007). A nurse residency program for competency development using human patient simulation. Journal for Nurses in Staff Development, (23)2, CAE Healthcare Competency Model CAE Healthcare s Competency Model is based on a hierarchy of learning and a blended learning approach to produce safer patient care. Our model provides multiple delivery methodologies for different objectives. One can progress through all four levels and have the opportunity to return to lower levels to strengthen skills and knowledge. CAE Healthcare simulation gave us the structure and support we needed to radically change how we deliver education. It changed our view of everything. Our focus has been on the new nurse graduate transition to practice. The level of confidence in our residents has dramatically improved. We ve done some data analysis during the time that we have had simulation, and our nurse-sensitive outcomes have improved.
