A key element of this improved education and training will be a rigorous, redesigned
pre-licensure curriculum debuting for incoming College of Nursing freshmen in fall 2012, which includes significant clinical simulation opportunities to ensure that Marquette nursing students learn the appropriate interventions for complicated health situations.
Accordingly, our Simulation Technology and Learning Resource Center (STLRC) is being totally re-imagined into the Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare Center for Clinical Simulation at Marquette University, which will provide a realistic health care environment where our students can strengthen essential clinical competencies, develop sound clinical reasoning and prepare for high-risk situations. The new simulation center is made possible by an investment from Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare and the generosity of our alumni and friends. It will be built in the lower level of the College of Nursing’s Emory T. Clark Hall, replacing the current STLRC.
Scheduled to open in late August 2012, the Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare Center for Clinical Simulation will include a six-bed hospital with two intensive care rooms, two medical surgical rooms, one pediatric/neonatal intensive care unit and one labor and delivery suite. It will also feature two provider offices, a home health/long-term care apartment, three skills labs with various levels of technology, and four debrief rooms, where professors and clinical educators are able to review video recordings of simulation exercises with students.
The Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare Center for Clinical Simulation at Marquette will significantly bolster our efforts to improve health care delivery through excellence in nursing education.
