ATMS (Advanced Training Management System) for Medical is designed for hospitals and medical training and simulation centers. ATMS is ideal to manage complex medical training while ensuring safety and compliance for healthcare professionals that require training and recordkeeping to ensure and maintain compliance critical to avoid patient accidents, deaths, as well as healthcare violations and costly fines.
In the latest issue of Medical Training Magazine, Editor-in-Chief Judith Reiss urges, “the third leading cause of death in the United States is medical error. We need to address the patient safety issue as we do diseases and airline disasters.” Similarly, the leading cause of accidents and fatalities among airline pilots is human error, and relatedly, the lack of training. Our CAE clients bring to light the crossover between aviation and healthcare in their recent article, “What Can Healthcare Education Learn from Pilot Safety Training?” states that:
“If certain procedures used in aviation training (mandatory simulation-based learning, standardized protocols, checklists and crew briefings) were transferred over to healthcare education, the result would be not only a vast improvement in patient care, but a sharp decrease in patient mortality rates.”
Just like aviation training programs, healthcare and simulation programs can improve safety and reduce loss of life by managing the entire training process from scheduling to grading enabled with computer-based training systems.

Medical training is vast and complex, but patient safety is not an option. Whether you’re managing task trainer, manikin-based, standardized patient, virtual reality, or tissue-based simulation, ATMS centralizes your training courses for improve training quality and student performance. More than likely your organization is governed by an overwhelming body of regulations and company standard operating procedures that require very specific course development, also known as Curriculum in ATMS. ATMS can house all of your organization’s medical training courses in one concise location. Utilizing expensive LMS’s and PowerPoint presentations to build and issue training can leave behind a trail of uncertainty regarding actual completion and recordkeeping. ATMS offers your organization the control to build courses based on the regulations governing each specific training course or utilize any existing courses already development. Design regulation based specific courses that must be completed with high level results such as mandatory test scores or grade to lower level requirements of complete/incomplete status. ATMS designed curriculum development to be customized and flexible based on a variety of government health regulations that govern each course requirement.
Does your organization conduct classroom training using multiple instructors and classroom locations? ATMS’ built-in schedule allows for classroom training to be scheduled in advance without classroom and instructor overlap. Notifying students of their training event can be daunting but ATMS provides automatic email notification to ensure students are aware of upcoming classes. Enable your instructors to practice the layout of a schedule before it occurs. Upon class completion instructors can store or grade any testing information within ATMS. Move beyond Outlook meeting requests and manage your training classes results within our advanced training management system.
Perhaps the most important aspect of an organizations regulatory governing process but often the most overlooked is recordkeeping. Regulations are clear regarding what is required and fines can be steep if not complied with. If your organization receives an audit, training records are typically requested regardless of the audit purpose. If your organization trains an individual under a federal regulation, there is likely a required record of training to be maintained. Seems simple enough with an Excel spreadsheet and filing cabinets, except when you are relying on multiple departments in your organization to produce and maintain those critical records. Keep everyone on the same page and ensure consistency by utilizing ATMS’ method of recordkeeping. Electronically store initial and recurrent training dates and automatically generate recurrent training dates for future completion. A comprehensive history will be maintained for each employee for each course taken, including test dates and scores. Once complete and if required, certificates of completion can be generated for print and are automatically saved in the student’s training history. Generate a variety of reports to show employees due for upcoming training and be ahead of the game. Allow multiple departments to efficiently and effectively manage their required training and recordkeeping while feeling secure that your organization is compliant with these often overlooked area.
Is your organization conducting eLearning through multiple, expensive, per course, outsourced LMS’s? Or are plans for expanding your training delivery through eLearning becoming a more critical means to improving efficiency and convenience? ATMS offers the flexibility of a built-in LMS to deliver existing eLearning courses, or convert PowerPoint presentations allowing them to run seamlessly through ATMS’ integrated LMS. Trainees can easily access their courses via MyATMS through any web browser and run eLearning.

Instructors can also grade down to multiple task events for one course, designed with the understanding that flexibility is key in evaluation of your employees’ training results.
