Education & Research
The Yale Center for Healthcare Simulation (YCHS) is a safe space for learning, where mistakes can be a learning tool, for medical students, physician associate students, and residents. Medical students gain hands-on experience and participate in various simulations starting with their first course, through the Capstone course in their final year, where they have the opportunity to participate in a simulation that provides the experience of being the only intern on the floor while taking care of patients on an overnight rotation.
All members of the Yale School of Medicine and Yale New Haven Health System medical community have access to the simulation lab for research purposes..
