New nursing and midwifery tech and facilities
We have recently launched our outstanding new clinical health facilities in the West Stand at StoneX Stadium.
Our high-tech simulation suites link the theories of the classroom with the practice of treating patients in a hospital environment with:
- The latest simulators for you to practice realistic emergency care situations and hospital scenarios
- Life-like mannequins that can simulate symptoms, diseases and conditions you’ll encounter as a working nurse
- Video recorders so you can receive evidence-based feedback from students and teachers watching you practice.
