Support Dr. Singh's Everest Challenge and Help Us Elevate Healthcare!

Dr. Singh is embarking on the adventure of a lifetime - a trek to Everest Base Camp - and he's taking the San Foundation's mission with him! This incredible challenge isn’t just about reaching new heights; it’s about raising essential funds to upgrade our Simulation Centre, a vital resource for training healthcare professionals and ensuring the best outcomes for our patients.

The Simulation Centre is where our doctors, nurses, medical students, and even community members hone their skills in life-like medical scenarios, preparing them to handle critical situations with precision and confidence. By supporting this initiative, you're helping us provide the cutting-edge training needed to uphold the high standards of care that Sydney Adventist Hospital is known for.

Why the Simulation Centre Matters:
The Simulation Centre is at the heart of modern healthcare education. It provides life-like scenarios where medical students, nurses, and doctors can practice and perfect their skills in a safe, controlled environment. From nursing students to seasoned doctors, simulation offers hands-on experience in managing complex medical situations, improving patient outcomes through better teamwork, decision-making, and procedural competence.

By investing in the Simulation Centre, we are:

  • Ensuring our doctors remain at the forefront of clinical excellence, with the ability to rehearse life-saving techniques.
  • Providing nursing students and Avondale trainees with opportunities to master essential skills before stepping into real-life scenarios.
  • Supporting ANU medical students in gaining the experience they need to succeed in the field.
  • Offering community GPs and school students the chance to engage in medical simulations, fostering a better understanding of healthcare.

“Simulation Learning has been integral to safety and quality in the aviation industry for decades. In medicine and health, we have only touched the surface.

Our vision is to create a new age of education, safety and quality in medicine and health through a pioneering centre of excellence in simulation learning for our students, staff and across our broad community. All great teams succeed through training, analysis and meticulous planning – it doesn’t just ‘happen’.”

Associate Professor Michael Hughes, Head, ANU Sydney Clinical School
