Clinical Education Labs

Welcome to the Clinical Education Labs!

The Clinical Education Labs (CEL) offer state-of-the-art resources on both Pleasantville (PLV) and New York City (NYC) campuses.The CEL offers a variety of clinical focused learning opportunities ranging from fundamental skills to high fidelity simulation.  This is accomplished through the utilization of a wide array of state of the art methods including skill trainers, Human Patient Simulators and Standardized Patients (actors who play the role of patients).  Hospital-like settings and clinic simulated environments provide students an opportunity to practice skills at basic and advanced levels across the curriculum. The CEL is outfitted with supplies and equipment that replicate healthcare setting including pediatrics, maternity, medical-surgical and critical care units.   Human patient simulators (HPS) including METIman, SimMan Essential, SimMom, SimJunior, SimBaby allow students to practice skills, develop critical thinking and improve performance in a safe and nurturing environment through scenario based educational experiences.  Video capture allows student self evaluation and opportunities to identify areas for improvement in small group debriefing sessions.
