Medical Simulation Training uses manikins to replicate realistic scenarios for safe training of technical medical skills in an immersive room to enhance the lifelike experience.

  • Medical Simulation Training uses advanced high fidelity simulators with the best physiological responses to replicate hyper-realistic scenarios for safe training of technical medical and surgical skills in an immersive room to enhance the lifelike experience.

VASA caters basic to advanced critical care scenarios for training and practice through the 10 simulation zones. They are namely:

    • The Intensive Care Unit Simulation Zone (ICU)
    • Anaesthesiology and Operating Room Simulation Zone (OR)
    • Obstetrics and Neonatal Simulation Zone
    • Pediatric Simulation Zone
    • Geriatric Care Simulation and Apartment Simulation Zone
    • Diagnostic Ultrasound Simulation Zone
    • Ambulance Simulation Training Zone
    • Debriefing Zones
    • Interventional Ultrasound Simulation Zone
    • OSCE – Objective Structured Clinical Examination

There are 10 simulation zones presently at VASA, out of which 8 are advanced medical simulation zones equipped with state-of-the-art human patient simulators.

The simulation zones at VASA are equipped with cutting-edge high fidelity patient simulations, surgical simulations, ultrasound simulations, blue phantoms, skill trainers, simulation centre management systems, etc.

  • The centre is open from: 9 am to 5.00 pm, Monday to Saturday
  • Please reach us at: vasa.info@vimsmail.com or front office executive for visit
  • Yes, visitors are allowed to visit the center with prior appointments. Please mail us at: vasa.info@vimsmail.com, or call us at: +91 80 2841 2956
  • Medical simulation training allows medical professionals to practice and perfect emergency scenarios on non-humans without risking lives and endangering people. It teaches medical students and common folk on how to give proper care and treatment, when someone is faced with an emergency.
  • The centre is located inside Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences.

    82, Vijayanagar, Nallurhalli, Whitefield, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560066. You can reach the front desk at: 91 08 2841 2956

  • Hostel accommodation/ guest house is available at Vydehi Campus. For availability and cost please email on: vasa.info@vimsmail.com
  • VASA is a part of the Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences located at Whitefield. It is South East Asia’s largest, most comprehensive, state-of-the-art, multidisciplinary medical simulation centre.
  • VASA is South East Asia’s largest, most comprehensive, state-of-the-art, multidisciplinary medical simulation centre. Spread over more than 40,000 sqft area and equipped with state-of-the-art, high fidelity patient simulators, VASA is the PLATINUM STANDARD for medical education in South East Asia.
  • High Fidelity Simulators are manikins that react in realistic ways to the learner’s treatments/ interventions. The simulators replicate patient issues in a safe, non-threatening environment that can be repeated numerous times to build skills and confidence.
  • VASA is the world’s first integrated training academy with a medical museum and simulation training centre located within the same campus.
  • VASA, or Vydehi Advanced Simulation Academy is the Platinum Standard of medical education in entire Southeast Asia. The centre is efficiently designed for medical simulation training and equipped with state-of-the-art human patient simulators.
  • The training at VASA is beneficial for medical professionals, paramedics, public service personnel, employees of government medical institutions, and common folk to help advance patient safety.
  • Simulation-based learning can develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes, to protect patients from unnecessary risks. When you are leading advanced medical procedures in a simulated environment you can practice and perfect these scenarios over and over again until you gain knowledge and confidence. The centre provides valuable tools for learning to mitigate ethical tensions and resolve practical dilemmas.
  • We will have one-to-one and small groups for training with focus on individual participants.Areas like neurosurgery, cathlab and general surgery simulations are often practiced one-to-one. Can my learning experience be customised?
  • How many people can join a group session?
  • Group size may vary from 15 to 25 participants.
  • VASA offers medical simulation training programs for corporates, medical professionals, paramedics, nurses, and common folk. To learn more about our basic life support and training programs for office emergency situations corporates can reach out to us at 080 2841 2956, or email us at: vasa.info@vimsmail.com
  • Yes. Need to discuss and plan accordingly. After approvals , we can conduct workshops
  • Simulation training provides deep immersive learning experience in a way real world training cannot. Learners have the opportunity to explore, experiment, practice and perfect emergency medical scenarios in ways that cannot be done in real life. By using advanced manekins, trainers at VASA are able to simulate real-like scenarios without endangering human life through the learning process.
  • Experienced faculty in simulation based education are the ones who conduct these programs at VASA.
  • Course material is proprietary and works best when experience at the VASA Simulation Academy. We do not recommend using these material for external training

With prior planning we can create custon training sessions for specific groups of students. Please write to info@vims.ac.in for more details
