The SimPRENA e-learning platform enables nursing and paramedic students to acquire new competences for preventing violent behaviours in the healthcare settings.

The main output of SimPRENA is the project's e-learning platform, a distinctive and engaging virtual environment that we hope will enable target groups (primarily nursing and paramedic students and their educators, together with trainers and simulation experts from health organisations dealing with the safety of healthcare workers) to acquire new skills and competences for preventing and resisting violent behaviours such as physical/verbal aggressions towards medical staff in the healthcare settings.

The platform's core consists of multiple actor-led videos that highlight particular topics, behaviours, and situations. Users will be able to virtually experience a particular scene through the films, which will be further improved by extra training materials, quizzes, and comments. These are built as a web-based application delivering all the required functionalities so that it will match the needs of the users.

The platform is currently undergoing small-scale piloting to assess its feasibility and effectiveness before its official launch in Dublin and large-scale rollout.
