Purpose

This paper discusses how civil war has disrupted medical and radiologic technologist students’ hospital training in Sudan. It emphasises how, in conflict, developing clinical skills depends on simulation-based training.

Design/Methodology/Approach

This paper studies and highlights satisfaction with simulation-based learning in routine X-ray radiography, using in-house tools developed globally, qualitative surveys, and feedback analysis.

Findings

Simulation-based training improves clinical skills, visual thinking, and practical ability despite constraints, including limited technology and less patient contact. This paper shows that it is a useful substitute for conventional education, supporting Sudanese healthcare development and recovery. Contribution and Practical Implications: This paper offers pragmatic solutions for sustainable development and recovery for Sudan’s healthcare system, providing a good substitute for traditional training approaches. The strategy fits Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 16 and 3. Limitation: Limited access to simulation tools and infrastructure in conflict-torn Sudan makes training challenging since there is a lack of funding and teachers.
