UL and UL Hospitals Group have launched a new simulation facility at UHL to provide undergraduate and postgraduate doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals with simulation training in a range of clinical procedures.
The CERC Simulation Lab has a wide variety of equipment in its simulation-based education and training programmes, including full-body manikins and task trainers (adult, paediatric, maternity). The facility was officially launched in September, with Dr Alan Watts, Consultant in Emergency Medicine, ULHG, leading a group of medical students through a simulated acute medical emergency involving a car crash victim.
