Nursing Students at Missoula College get a real-world simulation of trauma care

MISSOULA — Nursing students often spend hundreds of hours studying the ins and outs of medical in the classroom.

But hands-on training in an environment that matches what they may see in the real-world is sometimes hard to come by.

On Friday, however, nursing students at Missoula College were given the opportunity to participate in a patient care simulation, providing real-world scenarios for the students to learn in.

“We have this cohort of 12 students that are going through these simulations,” said Linda Barnesk, the nursing program director at Missoula College.
