Roll out training at scale across your teams
View this use caseDiscover the environment
Give landmarks before a placement, a new job or arriving in a new department.
Healthcare
Prepare teams for care situations and technical procedures
Familiarise professionals, students and new starters with the environments, roles and situations they will meet. Soriston complements lectures, tutoring and on-the-job training by giving access to contexts that cannot always be shown, observed or repeated at the right time.
Share a common reference
Present the same situations and points of attention to all learners.
Prepare for patient contact
Help people reach the field with a first understanding of the context, the expected procedures and the situations to handle, before meeting real patients.
Sector challenges
In healthcare, not everything can be learned when the situation arises
Some situations are rare, sensitive, hard to access or simply cannot be reproduced on demand for training. The aim is not to replace real practice, but to better prepare what can be prepared upstream.
Situations that are hard to observe
A student or a new starter does not necessarily meet the right situation when they need it to learn.
Environments to understand
How a department is organised, its areas, equipment, roles and information flow can take time to become familiar.
Knowledge passed on unevenly
Depending on the trainer, the tutor, their experience or the time available, the same elements are not always presented the same way.
Care comes first
The running of the department and patient care cannot always be interrupted to show or repeat a situation.
Prepare without replacing the fieldSoriston gives access to a context and to reference situations. Practice, supervision and validation remain in the hands of healthcare professionals and teaching teams.
Before the field
Arrive with landmarks, not with everything to discover
Before a placement, a new job or joining a new department, Soriston can give a first reading of the context and help understand how the environment is organised.
Find your way in the environment
Identify the spaces, areas, main equipment and elements useful to understand the context.
Understand the roles
See who is involved in the situation and how the different professionals coordinate.
Visualise the overall sequence
Understand the order of the main steps before facing the situation in the field.
Prepare to observe
Know what to look at, which questions to ask and what to go over afterwards with the trainer or tutor.
The first contact with the department can then start with understanding the context, rather than discovering every landmark at once.
Consistent training
The same reference situation, whatever the trainer or the department
A very experienced tutor, a very busy manager or a newly arrived trainer do not always stress the same elements. Soriston lets you share a common base: the same situations, landmarks and points of vigilance to go over with the teams and learners concerned.
A common reference
The same starting situations and information can be presented to all the groups concerned.
Fewer gaps in what is passed on
Passing on knowledge depends less on the time available or on each supervisor’s way of explaining.
The professional stays in charge
The trainer, tutor or manager adds context, asks questions, debriefs and supports practice.
Use cases
Situations that cannot always be shown at the right time
Soriston can build on very different contexts. The value is not only in working on a procedure: it can also mean discovering an environment, observing an organisation, analysing an interaction or understanding a professional situation.
Dental surgery
Environment, roles, overall sequence.
Reception & patient journey
Orientation, information, communication.
Preparing a space
Organisation, equipment, landmarks.
Team coordination
Roles, handover, organisation.
Sensitive situations
Observe, analyse, debrief.
Discovering a department
Spaces, flows, areas, landmarks.
Who is it for?
The same sector, different uses
A healthcare facility and a school do not use Soriston for the same reasons. The platform fits into very different paths without imposing a single organisation.
Hospitals & clinics
- Prepare new employees arriving in a department.
- Share a reference situation when an organisation or procedure changes.
- Give several teams or departments a common medium.
- Prepare a debrief or a training session from a concrete situation.
Nursing schools, schools & training centres
- Introduce a professional environment before a placement.
- Enrich a class or prepare a practical with a real situation.
- Go back over a field experience and structure the debrief with learners.
- Give access to situations not every student can easily observe.
One situation can serve at several points of the pathIn class, before a placement, during onboarding or in a debrief: the same medium can be used differently depending on the teaching objective.
A concrete case: dental surgery
Discover dental surgery before entering the room
A student or a new starter does not always get the chance to observe each phase at the right time or from a teaching viewpoint. Soriston can give them an overview of the environment, the roles and the overall sequence, then serve as a basis for the debrief with the trainer.
- Get oriented Spot the environment, the areas and the equipment.
- Understand the roles Identify who steps in and when.
- Observe the sequence Follow the overall chronology of the situation.
- Debrief Go over the key points with the trainer or tutor.
The goal is not to teach a clinical procedure on its own, but to make the context clearer before supervised practice.
The trainer’s role
Soriston gives access to the situation. The professional gives it meaning.
The platform does not replace practicals, simulation, placements, tutoring or clinical supervision. It provides a common medium the trainer can use to prepare, question and debrief.
Prepare
Present the context, the roles and the elements to observe before the real situation.
Question
Get the learner to put into words what they understood, spotted or interpreted in the situation.
Debrief
Go back over the choices, difficulties and points to revisit with a professional.
Validation remains humanClinical content must be framed and validated by the competent professionals. Soriston complements their support, it does not replace it.
Gradual rollout
Start with one situation. Extend afterwards.
There is no need to deploy Soriston across an entire facility from the start. A project can begin with one department, one class, one onboarding module or one specific situation, then be extended if the use proves relevant.
- One situation E.g. dental surgery
- One audience E.g. a class or a department
- Other uses Onboarding, placements, debrief
- Extension Other departments or facilities
A concrete starting point
Choose a situation where observation, preparation or consistent teaching brings real value.
A gradual extension
Then add other audiences, departments or facilities based on needs and feedback.
What if your teams and learners already knew the context before stepping into it?
Show us a situation that is hard to have observed, explained or reproduced. We will show you how Soriston could fit it into your training path.
