The rooms you will spend your days in

Student nurses practising patient positioning at the bedside

Hospital beds, adult and infant manikins, dressing trolleys and an incubator. Every procedure is rehearsed here before a ward.

  • Adult, obstetric and infant manikins
  • Injection, dressing and catheterisation stations
  • Infant incubator and resuscitation trainer
  • Bed-making, positioning and hygiene practice

A day here moves between three rooms.

  • Lecture in progress with students in blue scrubs

    Morning: the lecture hall

    Theory first. Anatomy, physiology, pharmacology and nursing science, with continuous assessment tests through the semester.

  • Student nurses drawing medication from a vial

    Midday: the demonstration room

    Every procedure is rehearsed on manikins and on each other before it is ever done on a patient. Injections, dressings, blood pressure, bed care.

  • Student nurses measuring a solution in the science laboratory

    Afternoon: the laboratory

    Microscopy, chemistry and microbiology practicals in the science laboratory, or CBT and e-learning in the ICT laboratory.

The rest of the day belongs to you.

  • The simulation and demonstration hall, with hospital beds, an incubator and anatomy charts along the walls

    The simulation hall

    Beds, manikins, an incubator and wall charts in one room, open outside timetabled practicals so you can rehearse a procedure until it is steady.

  • The student common room, with sofas, high tables and stools under a tiled ceiling

    The common room

    Sofas, high tables and stools for the gaps between lectures. Study in a group, eat, or sit out the afternoon heat.

  • Wide view across the five-a-side football pitch and the covered stand at Almadina College

    The five-a-side pitch

    A full grass pitch with a covered stand, used for inter-set matches and for anyone who wants a game after class.
