The Mount Mercy College Department of Nursing Clinical Simulation Laboratory (CSL) functions to support the nursing education curriculum. Learning opportunities are provided which serve to simulate authentic nursing practice and help students learn and practice clinical skills required for entry level nursing practice. Nursing students participate in a variety of learning activities and clinical simulations with a wide range of nursing equipment and qualified educators.

A solid grounding in such principles as the National Patient Safety Goals, Infection Control, Nursing Practice for Registered Nurses, and the American Nurses’ Association Code of Ethics for Nurses help students translate learning from the CSL into clinical practice.

Students may borrow selected equipment. The equipment must be signed out and students need to provide their MMC student I.D number. If borrowed items are not returned within the allotted time, the student’s college account is charged for the items.
