The Centre provides students with a safe, realistic and innovative learning environment where they can develop essential clinical skills, build confidence and prepare for real-world healthcare settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrated during National Nursing Week, the event was especially meaningful as the School recognized the leadership, expertise and lasting impact of nurses across Canada. The evening brought together faculty, staff, partners, donors and community members to mark this important step forward for Carleton\u2019s nursing program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre will play an important role in preparing resilient, practice-ready nurses. Through hands-on learning, simulation-based education and experiential training, students will gain the knowledge and confidence needed to respond to the complex realities of today\u2019s healthcare system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The School of Nursing is grateful to the individuals, foundations and organizations whose generous support helped bring the Centre to life. Their contributions strengthen learning opportunities for nursing students and support Carleton\u2019s commitment to preparing future healthcare professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"s\" class=\"wp-image-655\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-512x341.jpg 512w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/nursing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2026\/05\/P_CarletonPhotography_NursingSimulator_04272026-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating this milestone and to all those helping shape the future of healthcare through Carleton University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carleton University School of Nursing Celebrates the Opening of the Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre Last week, the Carleton University School of Nursing officially celebrated the opening of the Clinical Skills and Simulation Centre, Carleton\u2019s newest facility designed to support the next generation of nursing education.
