Student Health Care Laboratories
Bringing Together Education, Research, and Practice

The Health Care Laboratory is the essential operational curricular component that transforms critical thinking into the “how to” of practice. An interactive teaching model elicits appropriate application of critical thinking in anticipated care of patients across life span within a safe environment. This innovative model of education is contingent upon a creative pedagogy, effective and consistent leadership, and a commitment to supporting the educational experiences of students.

These experiences begin during the second year of study and progress through the fourth year and are imbedded within required clinical course work. A host of innovative and state of the art tools, such as interactive videos and computer assisted instruction, are utilized to engage the student in the learning process. These activities, coupled with “hands on” practice sessions, offer the students a diverse collection of teaching/learning opportunities that are most suited to individual learning styles.
