Medical simulation, or more broadly, healthcare simulation, is a branch of simulation related to education and training in medical fields of various industries. Simulations can be held in the classroom, in situational environments, or in spaces built specifically for simulation practice. [ 1 ]
An instructional simulation, also called an educational simulation, is a simulation of some type of reality (system or environment) but which also includes instructional elements that help a learner explore, navigate or obtain more information about that system or environment that cannot generally be acquired from mere experimentation.
The SSH Certified Healthcare Simulation Educator (CHSE) program was established to provide “formal professional recognition of your specialized knowledge, skills, abilities and accomplishments in simulation education.” [17] The CHSE had been issued to 600 simulationists in 17 countries by 2015. [18]
The need for a "uniform mechanism to educate, evaluate, and certify simulation instructors for the health care profession" was recognized by McGaghie et al. in their critical review of simulation-based medical education research. [48] In 2012 the SSH piloted two new certifications to provide recognition to educators in an effort to meet this need.
A curriculum framework is part of an outcome-based education or standards based education reform design. The framework is the second step, defining clear, high standards which will be achieved by all students. The curriculum is then aligned to the standards, and students are assessed against the standards.
SPs can also serve as a "confederate" in a simulation to perform the roles of other clinicians within the care team. [4] SPs used for in situ simulation activities may require special training. [5] For teaching future healthcare professionals how to perform intimate examinations, a specially trained simulated patient may be used.
Medical education applies theories of pedagogy specifically in the context of medical education. Medical education has been a leader in the field of evidence-based education, through the development of evidence syntheses such as the Best Evidence Medical Education collection, formed in 1999, which aimed to "move from opinion-based education to evidence-based education".

The Russian health care system is based on the principles of the Soviet health care system, which was oriented on mass prophylaxis, prevention of infection and epidemic diseases, vaccination and immunization of the population on a socially protected basis. The current government health care system consists of several directions:
