Project Design Priorities

Innovation and Collaboration

This space features 12 patient exam rooms where students can practice taking medical histories and refine their bedside manner with standardized patient-actors. Computerized mannequins display symptoms and distress the same way real patients do, giving students opportunities to practice procedures like putting in a blood line or intubation before doing so on a human patient. Each room is fully wired for audio and video, so faculty members can watch students' performances from central control rooms and provide post-procedural training in a debriefing session.
