Simbulance
Ambulance simulation
Students spend hundreds of hours working in an ambulance environment. The university's simulated ambulance is an ideal environment to promote small group learning in such a setting. Equipped with a stretcher, ambulance chairs and storage cupboards all within easy reach, students can practise just as they would in a real ambulance. To promote authenticity, the simbulance is equipped with cameras and microphones to enable tutors and peers to watch students learn without invading the learning environment.

I really value InterCity Place and the facilities that it offers. The lecturing team have worked hard to source a large stock of equipment for us to practise with. Nearly all of the equipment is identical to that used in the local ambulance service. The ability to book out the space and practise skills in our own time is also extremely beneficial to our learning.
