Simulation-based education has become a widespread and essential component of nursing training programs across the globe, revolutionizing how future nurses acquire practical skills and knowledge by providing immersive, hands-on experiences that enhance their preparedness for real-world clinical situations. 

This method of education is relatively new to nursing, gaining prominence over the last two decades as advancements in technology and pedagogical research have highlighted its effectiveness in enhancing student learning outcomes.

Simulation education in the school takes place in the Clinical Learning Center–9,000 square feet of space that features cutting-edge technology, 15 high-fidelity manikins, and four convertible rooms with movable tables, equipment and stations to accommodate different learning formats and configurations. 

During simulations, students practice skills such as donning and doffing personal protective equipment, performing patient assessments, and executing advanced procedures. They learn safety protocols, develop risk awareness, and sharpen their attention to detail, all critical components of effective nursing practice. This immersive experience also fosters collaboration, teaching students the importance of teamwork and communication while laying a solid foundation for their future clinical experiences.

Guided by a dedicated team of faculty and staff, the Clinical Learning Center transcends traditional learning tools; it’s an essential ecosystem designed to produce the best nursing professionals, equipped to meet the challenges of modern healthcare.
