These are some of the mobile simulation centre photos. It was extremely popular and all who attended including doctors found it very beneficial and really enjoyed the learning. It has been 9 years since we have had it at Corowa. Hopefully not that long until it returns to us again.
Great training for our nurses and doctors at Corowa Hospital.
