Providence Surgical Simulation Program

​We are excited to announce our new collaboration with the Providence Surgical Simulation Program (PSSP).  By combining our resources, FSIE and Providence have created a state of the art, fully equipped simulation center for laparoscopic surgery and flexible endoscopy in the PSSP laboratory. Located on the Providence Portland Medical Center campus in Portland, the PSSP provides an environment for practicing surgeons, surgical residents and other interventional professionals to acquire and maintain surgical skills competency. As part of the mission, PSSP also provides an environment for critical assessment of patient safety and quality assurance issues.
