The Wayne State University College of Nursing received a $200,000 grant from the Michigan Nursing Corps (MNC) to enhance its simulation technology for teaching clinical nursing skills. "This award will enable us to expand simulation training for a significant number of our undergraduate and graduate nursing students," said Barbara K. Redman, College of Nursing dean and professor. Simulation experience allows faculty to more efficiently assess procedures practiced by nursing students before they are performed on hospital and clinic patients. These students are then better prepared when they begin their training with actual patients. In addition, the grant will increase opportunities for nursing research on patient care practices as well as disease-specific projects." A photo of WSU nursing students is included.
