The 9,000 sq. ft. Simulation Center is located on the second floor of Leon Levine Hall of Medical Sciences. It encompasses standardized patient learning experiences and high-fidelity simulation for learners from all of Campbell University’s health science programs as well as continuing education programs.
The Simulation Center includes:
- Six high-fidelity simulation rooms including: Operating Room (OR), Emergency Room (ER), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Birthing Suite, Virtual Ultrasound Simulation Room, and a Multipurpose Simulation Room.
- Twelve OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) suites where learners engage with Standardized Patients to simulate doctor-patient interactions.
- Robust Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) curriculum for medical students and graduate medical education. Includes 10 Sonosite imaging machines, 10 Butterfly hand-held devices with iPads, 3 ultrasound simulators, and an assortment of injectable training models.
- Exam and simulation rooms equipped with cameras and audio.
- Debriefing/discussion rooms equipped with audio/video technology.
CUSOM Simulation Center Accreditation
We are pleased to announce that in May 2025 the Campbell University School of Osteopathic Medicine Simulation Center was awarded accreditation in human simulation from the Association of Standardized Patient Educators (ASPE), the leading global organization on best practices in human simulation. This prestigious accreditation is granted in recognition of programs and institutions that demonstrate an ongoing commitment and adherence to best practices in SP Methodology and underscores CUSOM’s commitment to excellence in medical education and the training of future healthcare professionals.
In May 2024, the Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH) granted Campbell University School of Osteopathic Medicine Simulation Center Accreditation status in the areas of Teaching and Education through December 2029. The Simulation Team is extremely honored to have been recognized for achieving compliance with the SSH standards and will strive to maintain the highest level of teaching and education practice in simulation medicine.
Our accreditation by SSH and ASPE is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our standardized patients, faculty, staff, and students. It reflects our unwavering commitment to providing high-quality education and innovative training methods that prepare our students to excel in their medical careers.
We extend our appreciation to SSH and ASPE for this professional recognition. This accreditation not only validates our efforts but also inspires us to continue striving for excellence in all aspects of our educational programs.
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this achievement. We look forward to continuing our journey of excellence in medical education and making a positive impact on the healthcare community.
