Aston University unveils new £1.5m healthcare teaching facility

A new £1.5 million healthcare facility has opened at a Birmingham university which will help to simulate real-life medical situations to aid students' learning.

The centre at Aston University will be used by those studying medicine, pharmacy and optometry and will give them the chance to practise in emergency settings using high-quality manikins.

These will simulate treating people for acute conditions such as a heart attack or learning how to intubate a patient onto a ventilator.
