Simulation Lab East
Room: H106A
The Simulation Lab East is available to all Health and Human Services students.
Simulation Lab East is designed as a single patient room. This room can accommodate the high-fidelity simulators, including Sim Mom, Sim Junior, and Sim Baby. This area can be transformed to mimic a Labor & Delivery Room, Pediatric room, or Medical-Surgical patient room. A one-way mirror separates the simulation room from a control room where faculty observe student performance and adjust the simulator responses.
