Our Mission Statement

Healthcare, learning and patient safety are universal rights. Increased Internet access helps bring our world closer to these ideals for humankind. The Virtual Anesthesia Machine (VAM) web site, as a model program striving to be non-loss and thus sustainable, demonstrates the enormous power of free and equitable access to essential teaching materials. Our mission is to continue building on the foundation and goodwill we have laid to promote sustainable collaboration between industry, foundations, funding agencies, governmental bodies and educators to enhance healthcare, learning and patient safety worldwide.
