We are recognized locally, regionally, and nationally as a leader in quality patient care, positive customer service, medical/allied health education, health-related research and employment opportunities. We seek to be the provider of choice of veterans and the community by offering an efficient, integrated quality health care system capable of providing a full range of primary, specialty and chronic health care services in a system that is readily accessible and responsive to change. Our key business drivers are quality, financial integrity, patient satisfaction and employee satisfaction. The Simulation Centers at the New York Harbor Healthcare System were built on the idea that we can improve the quality and efficiency of patient care through realistic simulations of normal and routine processes, as well as train all of our patient care staff to respond to emergency situations with more knowledge and confidence. Most importantly, is the team-training and team-building aspects of the simulation program. Training occurs on the high tech mannequin, that simulates a normal patient or person. It can be attached to monitors commonly found in the hospital, and have several procedures performed such as: chest tube insertion, needle decompression of pneumothorax, IV catheter insertion, and airway management complete from standard intubation to bronchoscopy. Other simulators found in the center are a laparoscopic training simulator, chest tube simulators, central line placement simulator for internal jugular and subclavian approaches, as well as numerous demonstration models. Computer based programs include physical examination skills reviews in heart, lung, abdomen, back, extremity and neurological examination. Other programs address issues such as Bioterrorism preparedness, Hemodynamic monitoring and interpretation, Critical Care patient monitoring, evaluation, and management, Anesthesia simulation. Recently, we have even added computer based simulation for Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS ) preparation for certification. The New York Harbor Healthcare System currently uses SimMan 3G. It is a realistic, full body adult, patient simulator. It has advanced functionality to teach critical skills. Wireless, self-contained, rugged and reliable, it meets the Harbor s need for a critical and flexible training solutions. Simulation provides the opportunity to train staff without risk to patients. The ability to frequently practice and manage complex medical scenarios helps to prevent medical errors while detailed feedback promotes discussion and reinforces the learning process. Objectives/Requirements Delivering high quality simulation experiences requires training to take place at the right time and place, and it requires the most appropriate equipment. In order to maintain the high level of maintenance required for the upkeep of our Sim Man 3G, the Education Department needs to renew the SimMan 3G VP Platinum Program which includes extended warranty, preventive maintenance on site & loaner. Extended Warranty Extended Warranty programs continue the Laerdal Standard I Year Manufacturer Warranty for the manikin, simulator or system.

Most Medical products are complex manikins, task trainers and patient simulators that are not designed to be sustained by user customers. These are technically sophisticated systems, software driven, computer controlled reactive/interactive electro-mechanical constructs that require Medical authorized, specially trained and equipped technicians having access to (otherwise unavailable) parts and components to carry out preventive maintenance and/or repair procedures that most times also require specialized test/calibration fixtures and/or verification test procedures.
