The Department is situated in the Sólás Building which is a purpose built state of the art facility offering large and small classrooms/meeting rooms, lecture theatres, conference facilities, boardroom, computer laboratories, nursing interpersonal skills and clinical skills suites. The Clinical Skills Suites are designed to provide a simulated clinical learning environment. The student can learn the clinical skills of nursing through communicating and interacting with peers and experienced facilitators in a safe, non-threatening and friendly setting. Facilitators strive to utilise innovative teaching / learning methodologies in order to engage the student within the simulated learning experience. Ultimately, the team endeavour to assist in the development of competent registered practitioners who can deliver nursing skills effectively and efficiently in the clinical setting.
