Clinical Laboratories

The two clinical laboratories provide practice laboratory experiences for nursing skills and critical thinking skills. The labs are equipped with life-size anatomical demonstration models, beds and equipment to simulate the clinical area. A simulation manikin (SimMan) is also housed in the Clinical Laboratory. Clinical lab personnel are available at posted times during the Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter semesters. The laboratory practice provides “hands-on” experience with equipment for skill refinement or in preparation for a clinical assignment; or by creative problem solving when carrying out a simulated nursing situation that combines theory and practice and is also used for skills appraisal.

The simulated laboratory is equipped with the necessary equipment for simulation practice. The students are able to practice their clinical skills and schedule tutoring sessions with faculty.
