Enhancing your clinical skills

Location: St Andrews Court

In 2023 our new clinical skills learning area was opened, creating 10 new clinical teaching rooms for students in the Faculty of Science and Health.

Designed for flexibility, some of the rooms can be opened up for larger groups, giving a more comprehensive training experience. The space also uses a wide variety of patient simulators and actors.

When available, these spaces are bookable outside of lesson times, enabling you to learn and practice when it suits you.
