Our purpose-built Health and Wellness building incorporates<br />
health simulation suites and demonstration wards that provide<br />
a safe, authentic environment for clinical skills development, all<br />
designed to increase the competence and confidence of students.<br />
The demonstration wards contain 52 beds and meet Australian<br />
healthcare standards. Students have the opportunity for<br />
experiential hands-on practice to learn nursing skills in a variety<br />
of simulated healthcare settings.<br />
“The Student Mentor Program gave me<br />
the chance to receive guidance and advice.”<br />
I chose ECU Nursing because of their amazing reputation<br />
and excellent facilities, including demonstration and<br />
simulation wards, but the support I received was an added<br />
bonus. Lecturers always ensured they were accessible,<br />
and the Student Mentor Program gave me the chance<br />
to receive guidance and advice from third-year Nursing<br />
students and academic staff.<br />

undertake a community placement overseas, where they are<br />

Thailand, Laos, the Philippines and Tanzania.<br />
