Experience real nursing issues before interacting with real patients.

The application and use of high-fidelity simulation technologies for the improvement of health care education is vital to our academic programs. Simulation is incorporated in our undergraduate programs and our clinically focused graduate programs. In addition to working with mannequins, students also learn valuable interpersonal communication skills. After each simulation scenario, students review their performance with faculty and staff to discuss what went well and identify areas for improvement.
