CSON Lobby
The Connell School moved into our new home in 2015. Maloney Hall, our main building, features the Brown Family Clinical Learning Lab, the Simulation Lab, and an inviting lobby.
-
Brown Family Clinical Learning Laboratory
With 12 hospital beds, low-fidelity manikins, and task-training models, this 2,000-square-foot laboratory enhances our students’ training. Thanks to a generous gift from Scott Brown ’79 and his wife, Tracy Burnett Brown ‘80, Boston College parents, students can complete their classwork and practice clinical skills in a realistic environment. With greater access to experiential learning, they gain confidence and strengthen their knowledge at all levels, from foundational skill-building to advanced simulation exercises that encourage critical thinking.
-
Simulation Laboratories
As nursing simulation plays an increasingly critical role in coursework, CSON students can apply what they learn in the classroom at the Simulation Laboratory. Featuring four realistic hospital settings and the latest in clinical teaching tools—including computerized high-fidelity manikins—the lab lets instructors simulate a wide range of medical scenarios and emphasizes teamwork. Two control booths and viewing rooms, as well as two debriefing rooms help prepare students for what they can expect during their clinical rounds and throughout their careers.
-
Examination Rooms
Five examination rooms feature exam tables, writing desks, supply cabinets, sink/soap dispensers, and wall-mounted equipment. Students utilize these spaces for clinical assessments as well as to hone their skills for clinical practice.
-
Student Lounge
The Student Learning Commons on Maloney Hall’s second floor is connected to the nursing labs. Students have access to quiet study areas and collaborative areas, including AV-equipped work rooms. The lounge also has a pantry with a microwave, lockers, and laptops and textbooks available for loan.
Our Spaces in Action
-
Our state-of-the-art simulation labs provide students the opportunity to practice in a risk-free environment and build their confidence. Students are placed into realistic scenarios acted out through high-fidelity manikins and live actors that prepare them for real-world experience.
-
Debrief rooms are paired with each simulation space to allow students to observe simulations and reflect on the sessions.
-
Control rooms are located through a one-way mirror window to allow instructors to manage each simulation and enact various scenarios.
-
Each simulation provides realistic experiences that emphasize teamwork and collaboration.
