Each of the simulation rooms is equipped with an examination bed, medical supplies, and all the equipment needed for a routine doctor's office visit.
Baylor College of Medicine has expanded its lab from six rooms to 12 rooms designed to look and function like a real medical clinic. Each room is equipped with computers, wall-mounted exam equipment, and video cameras.
There are two rooms currently being remodeled to resemble a hospital triage room.
Students are tested in these exam rooms to experience a realistic patient-doctor encounter. The lab prepares students to start their residency with confidence.
