Nursing Learning Resource and Simulation Center

The LRSC offers a variety of resources used to enhance student's independent learning by providing access to computers, audiovisual materials and practice labs for clinical skills.  The LRSC in the College of Nursing and Health Professions is available to all nursing students, faculty and staff.  The main office, computer lab and bed lab are all located on the first floor of Masterton Hall (rooms 107, 106 & 105).  The assessment lab is located on the second floor (204/206) and on the third floor we have a classroom set up seminar style that can seat up to 20 people (303).  

Also, the School of Nursing has designed a new state of the art Simulation Center on the basement level of Masterton in room G-6. This new Simulation Center houses our human patient simulators (HPS) SimMan and our newly acquired SimBaby.

The LRSC is the “home” of many resources.  We have 5 networked computers, a state of the art bed lab and assessment lab and many supplies, manikins, multimedia software, simulation models and videos all of which can help you learn all that you can about nursing and the delivery of health care to all.

SimBaby is a new “State of the Art” life size technologically advanced computerized baby that can be used to teach basic and advanced life support skills and assessment.

Funding from Maine Maine Medical Center has made this purchase possible and has opened up an exciting opportunity for collaboration between the College of Nursing and Health Professions and Maine Medical Center. This collaboration is a significant addition to the resources available for our students and Maine Medical Center's physicians and nurses to experience real life sceneriors in a safe and controlled environment.
