Welcome to the team, Dr Lauren Squires 👋
We’re thrilled to announce Lauren as one of our 2026 Simulation Fellows.
Lauren is an Emergency Medicine registrar with a background in research science, public health and a unique interest in medical illustration. She is keen to use these skills, along with simulation techniques to further embed a learning culture in her clinical workplace.
We can't wait to see Lauren’s impact on our simulation-based training as we continue to advance patient care and clinical teamwork.

Advanced Life Support (ALS2)

Master the art of advanced life support. Join the Adelaide Health Simulation team on 14th & 15th April for an immersive, hands-on ALS2 experience designed to sharpen your clinical edge.

AHS utilise contemporary simulated environments & equipment, facilitating best-learning practice. We will be holding our next Advanced Life Support Level 2 (ALS2) course on 14 & 15 April in our state-of-the-art facilities on North Terrace.

This is a two-day course with the focus on developing advanced skills in managing deteriorating patients and cardiac arrest. The course is designed for healthcare professionals who would be expected to apply those skills taught as part of their clinical duties, or to teach them on a regular basis. Appropriate participants include doctors, and nurses working in critical care areas (e.g. ED, CCU, ICU, HDU, acute admissions units) or in the resuscitation /medical emergency team, and paramedics.

We’re excited to share that Adelaide Health Simulation has recently acquired new ultrasound equipment, further strengthening our commitment to providing students with hands-on, practice-based learning.

Ultrasound is an increasingly important tool across many areas of healthcare. By incorporating this technology into our simulation program, students will have the opportunity to:
- Build confidence in image acquisition and interpretation
- Practise procedures in a safe, supportive environment
- Gain familiarity with equipment they’ll encounter in clinical settings

Simulation offers a unique bridge between theory and practice, and this addition will help ensure our students graduate with the skills and confidence they need for patient care.

Thanks to all of our colleagues at Meditech SA 💖
