Life/Form GERi Complete Nursing Essentials

Nasco Life/Form GERi Complete Nursing Essentials

The Nasco Life/Form GERi Complete Nursing Essentials kit features a full-size adult manikin showcasing an elderly appearance with wrinkles and folds. The life-like design of the manikin allows a range of motion, including non-pinching joints and realistic patient positioning which make the simulation realistic. The overall appearance of the manikin is of a woman but can be converted into a male patient by removing the wig and attaching male genitals. It is perfect to practice bandaging, clothing changes, bed baths, finger and toe manipulation with bandaging, hair care washing and combing, patient transfer technique, peri care, patient positioning, tracheostomy care, eye irrigation, oral and nasal hygiene, ear canal irrigation, otic drops, hearing aid placement, denture placement and removal and other nursing procedures.

It can also be used to learn gastronomy procedures, urinary catheterization, pap smears and douching, prostate exam – Stage B, and Nasogastric tube placement. The system is operated by instructors using the SimVS app that comes pre-installed on the control tablet device. The app provides the ability to train with a standardized patient, manikin or simulator using a monitor stand that display, auto BP cuff, pulse ox, and thermometer, along with a separate glucometer. The tablet can be linked to 1 or more sets of equipment and controlled as a group. The student can easily track the relevant information that the instructor has set for the patient through their tablet device. This training system supports home health aid medical programs, CNA nursing and medical programs along with health training needs.
