When complete, Russell Sage College’s new 3,050-square-foot clinical simulation center will provide a hospital-like setting where Nursing, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Nutrition students will practice with high-tech manikins and medical equipment. The new clinical simulation center will complement the existing simulation space in McKinstry Hall.

The clinical simulation lab expansion is also supported by a major gift from the William Randolph Hearst Foundation.
