Spanning 1800 square feet, the lab is equipped with simulators, CPR mannequins, and life-form hand simulators, along with hospital beds featuring mannequins, linens, and privacy screens.

This multifunctional space allows instructors to lecture while students practice techniques. It includes a central seating area with movable tables for enhanced visibility. Materials for skill demonstrations are organized in cupboards, and color-coded bins facilitate proper waste disposal.
