The power of in-situ simulation
The Jump Simulation Director of Educational Development explains the benefits of taking simulation to facilities across the Ministry.
Jump Simulation
Advancing simulation
Founded in 2012, Jump Simulation is a leader in health care education, simulation and innovation. A collaboration between OSF HealthCare and the University of Illinois College of Medicine Peoria, Jump applies simulation, research, discovery, collaboration and applied science to dramatically improve outcomes and lower costs in the health care space.
As part of OSF Innovation, Jump shares its years of expertise with institutions around the world to transform health care. Its home is Jump Trading Simulation & Education Center, one of the largest simulation and innovation centers in the world.
Jump ARCHES awards Fall 2022 Grants
Jump ARCHES awarded nearly $1.8 million in funding across 16 projects to address a variety of medical challenges.
About us
Jump applies the power of simulation to not only educate and train, but to test new methods, technologies and devices in health care and create solutions for clinical training and health care delivery.
Education
Whether you are looking to attend an engaging learning experience, design quality simulation events or seek clinical simulation examples to meet a practice gap, Jump offers a variety of educational content to meet your needs.
Simulation-based education
If you are an academic institution or health care simulation center, we encourage you to partner with us to develop simulation experiences that address critical programmatic and clinical needs to achieve identified outcomes and demonstrate value.
Medical Visualization applications
Take advantage of our free innovative mobile applications that can help you hone your skills when and where they want.
Jump STEAM
Learn about our hands-on STEAM programming with multiple activities for families to choose from.
Research
Jump Research leverages simulation and engineering techniques to improve patient safety, ensure access to high-quality health care and bend the cost curve in the medical industry.Test a concept
Do you have an idea, prototype of technology that you want to investigate further? We can help you design a study that uses simulation to determine the feasibility of your solution.Validate simulation events
How do you know if the simulation you created is successful? We can help you identity whether your event has increased confidence, changed processes or behaviors and improved patient safety using simulation and engineering research techniques.
Tap into the Research teamInnovation
While simulation has the power to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs in health care, it’s also a valuable tool to discover opportunities for improvement or innovation.In situ simulations
We can help you develop simulation events you can take on the road, facilitating more in-depth needs assessments, improving access to simulation resources and identifying areas for growth.
Reducing costs
Our Jump Engineering team and simulation specialists often work together to create task trainers, moulage and new ways to leverage manikins in order to remain good stewards of the health care system.
Attend
Jump provides a variety of education and simulation events for young people, medical professionals and everyone in between.
We also welcome and encourage you to design your own educational or community experience using our state-of-the-art facility, equipment and event specialists.
Plan your own eventWe also welcome and encourage you to design your own educational or community experience using our state-of-the-art facility, equipment and event specialists.
Invest
We would not be where we are without support from individuals, businesses and organizations like you.
