For The Ledger
BUTLER TWP. – She complains of pain. Of nausea. She coughs. Regurgitates. Her skin shows evidence of a bedsore. Her heartbeat slows, then races. Her oxygen level takes an unexpected dive.
Simone’s stay, as the newest simulated patient within Butler County Community College’s Shaffer School of Nursing and Allied Health, will be a long one.
Around the corner and up the carpeted inclined hallway, Simon hasn’t left his hospital bed in years. Neither has Simba her crib.
BC3 in August added Simone to its inventory of state-of-the-art medical educational technology to prepare for an increase in enrollment resulting from partnerships with Grove City College and with Concordia Lutheran Ministries.
