Abstract
The involvement of simulators for training health professionals to improve their interactive skills appears to be successful. They allow health professionals to practice in a relatively safe environment and to have useful feedback based on a positive approach and constructive suggestion. The simulators appear to find the experience very rewarding. The costs are small and can be built into course fees.
