Excerpt from “Innovating Education for 21st Century Care”
“The train wreck survivors are bloodied and bruised. A man with a broken nose begs for morphine, as does a woman whose gashed ankle reveals a protruding bone. The emergency is staged. The injured are actors. But the students are not pretending. In Columbia University School of Nursing’s Helene Fuld Health Trust Simulation Center, new technology is transforming education, and students apply classroom learning to a real-world setting.”
