Health simulation suites
Our health facilities include:
- Six-bed hospital ward with simulation manikins and audio/video equipment
- Community care environment
- Clinical skills teaching room with virtual reality technology
- Additional study and teaching areas
There is a replica hospital ward and nursing simulation suite to enhance and support our wide range of healthcare degree courses, including Adult Nursing, Physiotherapy and Health and Social Care.
The ward simulates a hospital bay, with six beds complete with equipment you would expect to see on a real ward.
The manikins are designed to support the teaching and the practise of essential clinical skills.
The home room with en suite bathroom is for demonstrating and practising care for patients in their own home or in a care home setting.
The monitoring suite is used to control the cameras and audio/visual recording equipment to capture skills teaching, simulated learning and assessments being carried out in the ward area.
Virtual reality as a form of immersive learning is the exciting opportunity for students to ‘virtually’ take part in life-like clinical scenarios.
