Who We Serve

Medical students, residents and other health professions students are provided with a learning environment where they can practice skills ranging from the patient interview, physical exam skills, procedural skills, and team and communication skills. In addition they need to receive feedback on their activities and be provided with the opportunity to incorporate that feedback into new learning opportunities. The simulation center provides them with a learning environment where they can 1) practice without risk of harming patients; and 2) engage in repetitive practice to master skills.

Teaching faculty are provided with a well staffed facility where they can develop, stage and offer simulation-based opportunities for their learners. Faculty members have access to expertise in simulation-based health education including faculty development on the uses of simulation, curriculum development, and objective-based assessment. In addition, researchers are provided with an environment where they can both develop and test simulation technologies and curricular innovations.
