Among other things, the ministry's announcement states that the minister highlighted: the development of training rooms equipped with modern technical equipment, so-called skill labs, which model the interventions necessary for patient care and serve to improve the knowledge of healthcare workers, has already been started in eleven hospitals and three rural universities.

According to Miklós Kásler, specialists can meet techniques and technology in the labs that they have not been familiar with before, and these classrooms are extremely important not only in graduate training, but also in postgraduate training and vocational training.

According to the department's announcement, during the training in the training rooms, the resident doctors, medical students, and health care workers acquire practical skills that can be applied professionally and at a high level, in addition to the theoretical knowledge they have already acquired. Patient care and professional skills are practiced by simulating realistic situations. There is a particularly high demand for the practice of life-saving interventions, since there is no risk-free way of doing them in other circumstances.

According to the information, the demonstration equipment now acquired for the teaching laboratories includes ventilators, EKG and ultrasound devices, defibrillators, models practicing venous cannulation, life-like adult, child, infant and newborn mannequins, injection, intubation, catheterization and chest tube activities. tools for its practice as well.
