Nursing students at the Carolinas College of Health Sciences are tending to a new kind of patient. With the help of high-fidelity mannequins in a simulation lab that mirrors an actual hospital room, nursery, or surgical room, students are benefiting from the ability to actively apply their classroom knowledge before entering a true clinical situation. The mannequins are programmable by instructors which allows students to gain experience as their patients appropriately react to the amount of medication or the type of treatment they are given. A rising trend in healthcare simulation labs allow students to get comfortable practicing their modalities without the risk of putting anyone in danger.
