Clinical Skills & Simulation Centre
The Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre provides a state-of-the-art environment where students can develop their practical healthcare skills in a safe, supportive, and highly realistic setting.
Where learning meets real-life care
Designed to replicate real clinical environments, the centre allows students to step into the world of professional healthcare long before they enter a hospital ward.
Every session is guided by expert teaching staff from University Centre Somerset, ensuring students gain the confidence and compassion needed to excel in patient care.
Our fully equipped virtual ward and spacious clinical teaching areas enable students to practise a wide range of healthcare procedures using advanced simulation technology.
