Customer Testimonials
“Thank you to the iCELS OnSiteSim team for the awesome sim sessions. The day after we hosted the training sessions with respiratory therapists, registered nurses, Physicians, and Physician Assistants, the Emergency Department had a complicated delivery requiring a full neonatal resuscitation. Having the team review just beforehand was unbelievably helpful during this clinically challenging case. We hope to do more sessions in the future!”
