Avkin® was founded by a nurse educator who experienced these problems firsthand. With an entrepreneurial spirit, she formed an interdisciplinary team of nurse educators, engineers, and business experts which would turn into what we now know as Avkin®. To resolve the disadvantages of current simulation technology, Avkin® developed a product line which combines the best of both worlds. Our line of p

roducts provide medically complex simulated learning experiences while using standardized patients (human actors) to maintain realism. In addition to our wearable simulators, Avkin® provides standardized patient education and simulation facility training for a seamless transition in your clinical simulation lab. By enhancing the training process, we provide the highest fidelity possible and give current and future healthcare providers the most realistic environment in which to practice. Avkin® provides a new and innovative way of learning through the use of our uniquely designed, wearable technology like Avcath, Avtrach, Avstick, and Avgear.

If students are laughing during simulation… it might actually be a realism problem 👀

When simulation feels real, learners show up differently. 🩺

Are your standardized patients going off script? Effective training is essential.

Avkin and HealthySimulation have partnered to offer an online Standardized Patient Training Certificate designed to strengthen consistency and performance in simulation encounters.

Led by human simulation experts Amy Cowperthwait, CHSE-A, and Megan Weldon, CHSE, this course helps standardized patients build the essential skills needed for high-quality simulation experiences—from character development to delivering structured, effective learner feedback.
