Develop your skills in healthcare with the outstanding facilities at University of Staffordshire.
Our complete range of dedicated clinical facilities include simulated wards, virtual and augmented reality technology, simulated living spaces and industry-standard analytical and medical equipment that puts you in the heart of healthcare environments while you’re studying. For example, we have a full training ambulance so students can prepare for real life scenarios using the equipment they will find when they go on to placement and in to practice.
Throughout the year, we host several opportunities for students to partake in inter-professional simulated training experiences that are set up as large scale events on our campuses. Recently this has included a simulated terrorist attack, where students have to practice their team, communication and leadership skills in a pressurised scenario. These experiences have previously included students from our paramedic and nursing courses as well as students from policing and media courses.
Centre for Health Innovation
At our £5.8m Centre for Health Innovation, we immerse you in hands-on learning experiences. We build your skills for the real-world. Our facilities are safe learning environments, empowering you to put theory into practice.
From simulated wards and operating theatres, through to a training ambulance and simulated road traffic collisions, you'll familiarise yourself with procedures and proccesses that will be expected in real life.
Simulation suites at Stoke
At our Stoke-on-Trent campus, we have a simulated ward and immserive space to replicate realistic scearnios.
What's more, we recently invested £2.2m into brand-new simulation spaces at our Stoke campus. These will be used by multiple course areas and include several mock living-spaces, a shop, prison cell, custody suite and more.
