Nipro is a leading global healthcare company dedicated to developing and delivering innovative and patient-oriented solutions for healthcare professionals, patients, and the pharmaceutical industry around the world. Nipro is committed to positive patient outcomes and improved quality of life. 

To emphasize this continuous commitment to healthcare, Nipro built its own Institute of Medical Practice, or iMEP, in 2018 in Belgium, designed to train medical professionals in realistic clinical settings. Trainings are provided based on the blended learning principles such as plenary session, hands-on training, scenario-based simulation training, gamification, e-learning and virtual classroom. 

iMEP invested in 2 fully equipped simulation rooms. Both rooms have a hemodialysis setting with high-fidelity manikins having vascular access sites (arteriovenous fistula and central venous catheter) developed by ourselves. Currently, we practice 4 hemodialysis scenarios made in collaboration with Nephrologists and Crisis Resource Management (CRM) professionals. Together with Way2Play we developed a board game for Crisis Resource Management. iMEP is having 2 observation & debriefing rooms where participants can observe through live streaming. iMEP can also stream simulation sessions outside our building. Our programs are accredited by The European Dialysis and Transplant Nurses Association/European Renal Care Association (EDTNA/ERCA). 

Healthcare providers have the chance to develop, and this is represented in our credo “We encourage you to blossom”. 

Addition to our great training portfolio offering for dialysis nurses, we will organize the below trainings for physicians by the world-famous KOLs:
