The Mt. Sinai Skills and Simulation Center (MSSSC) served many customers during its first year of operation. More than 3000 students have come to the facility to engage in various types of simulation education. It has been a resource for health care students throughout Northeast Ohio. Groups from the Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland State University, Cuyahoga Community College, and Lakeland Community College have used the facility. In addition, trainees and practitioners from area hospitals including the Cleveland Clinic Hospital system, MetroHealth, University Hospital system, and the VA participated in simulation exercises at the center. The center accomplished its initial goals: to provide access to a variety of simulation modalities and to be multidisciplinary.
The MSSSC is currently located in a building owned by the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center and situated at the corner of East 105th Street and Wade Park. This beautiful facility is
only temporary. Eventually, the MSSSC will move to the West Quad area. Its permanent location on the site of the Mount Sinai Hospital will be an enduring tribute to our visionary benefactors. The MSSSC
occupies the first floor of the building. The VA Medical Center is constructing a Learning X Change on the upper level. |
