South Louisiana Community College on Wednesday unveiled its new Home Health Training Lab at the college's Gulf Area Campus in Abbeville. The lab is a partnership with SLCC, LHC Group, and Myers Family Foundation that began in 2020.
The Home Health Lab features a state-of-the-art, immersive environment that replicates a patient's bedroom or living room and allows SLCC healthcare students to practice the knowledge, skills, and abilities of home care in a realistic environment. The lab is complete with an advanced computerized simulation mannequin that replicates a variety of clinical situations and responds to care given by its users.
