In this Episode we take alook around the Edith Cavell Building simulation centre.

Built in 2006 the Edith Cavell Building (ECB) was originally the school of Nursing and Midwwifery and served as a general purpose faculty building for healthcare students at UEA.  In 2021 the building underwent a £1.6 Million redevelopment project to transfrom it into a cliinical skills and simulation centre.

Learning spaces are based around three main principles:

1 - Specialist spaces:  These look and feel like real world envirnoments (e.g. hospital ward of community home)
2 - Clinical skills spaces:  Deisnged to be multi purpose to support a wide range of clinical skills undertaken at the school of health sciences
3 - Debrief spaces:  Used for simulaiton briefing and debriefing and watching simulaiton remotely using the SMOTS audio visual system fitted around the building.

Join Tony and Lawrence as they take you on a tour of the building.
