Abstract
TBD
Tour
The UCF College of Medicine Clinical Skills and Simulation Center’s mission is to provide a safe learning environment for the undergraduate medical curriculum to teach and assess students in patient-centered care, and develop a line of extramural work for the training of healthcare professionals outside UCF.
The 7,500 square foot state-of-the-art Clinical Skills and Simulation Center provides a variety of clinical settings for students to gain hands-on experience in order to learn and practice essential skills. We have sixteen exam rooms that are set up with the medical equipment that you would find in any standard exam room. All rooms are video compatible and have an instructor’s one-way glass viewing station.
The Clinical Skills and Simulation Center Standardized Patient program currently employs over one hundred Standardized Patients, including trained Physical Exam Teaching Associates, Genitourinary Teaching Associates, and Male Urological Teaching Associates.
Equipped with training simulators and medical mannequins, the Clinical Skills and Simulation Center is used to teach clinical assessment and intervention skills, such as heart, lung, and bowel sounds, venipuncture and catheterization. Additionally, the center provides space exclusively for research and development in virtual simulation technology.
The Clinical Skills and Simulation Center serves an average of three hundred medical students on a weekly basis throughout the academic year. We also serve other medical institutions by training residents, nurses, and physicians.
