            The Toulouse University Hospital (CHU) logo Service d'Aide Medicale Urgente (SAMU - Urgent Medical assistance Services) employees in hazmat suits participate in an exercise in the environmental and neuro-sensory simulation center (SENS), a 140 m² dome project which aims to expose and train health professionals through simulation to environmental, sensory and emotional feelings felt in a crisis situation in Toulouse, southwestern France, on April 25, 2024. The dome is capable of carrying out the most realistic scenarios possible, stimulating all the senses (vision, sound, touch, smells), dedicated to pre-hospital professionals (EMS, emergency and security forces). A supervision room equipped with an ergonomic computer system allows control of the environmental parameters of the simulation: temperature variation (from -5 to +30°C), snow, wind and rain (up to 30 km/h), smoke or even specific odors (blood, burnt hair, etc.).
