Advanced geriatric simulation
Learn about aging
from a new perspective.
Gerisim is a geriatric simulation suit designed for healthcare training. It gives learners an opportunity to experience challenges associated with aging and reflect on what those experiences can mean in care.
Explore the six simulation areasSix dimensions of experience
Small tasks.
New perspective.
Gerisim explores a range of age-related challenges through practical simulation, with intensity that can be adjusted for your training session.
Mobility restrictions
Experience how limited movement can change the way routine activities feel.
Hearing impairment
Notice how reduced hearing can shape conversations and communication.
Dexterity challenges
Try familiar tasks while fine motor movement feels more difficult.
Balance simulation
Consider how balance concerns may affect movement and confidence.
Adjustable intensity
Adapt the level of simulation to suit the needs of your training session.
Training benefits
Practice the
human side
of healthcare.
An experiential starting point for conversations about aging, empathy, and the everyday realities of care.
Build perspective
