Partner Spotlight: Karolinska Institutet (Sweden)

​

In this ESCORT partner interview, Klas Karlgren, Associate Professor at Karolinska Institutet, shares how his team contributes through healthcare simulation and emergency preparedness training.

​

Karolinska develops services and realistic training scenarios that prepare healthcare professionals to respond to medical emergencies, disasters, and healthcare crises. By simulating difficult situations, such as patient surges, limited resources, and complex prioritization decisions, teams can practice handling real-world challenges in a safe environment.

​

As Klas explains, learning from mistakes in simulation can better prepare professionals for real emergencies. ESCORT also introduces new tools and technologies, and Karolinska ensures healthcare teams are trained to use them effectively.
