SLC to upgrade health sciences learning centres thanks to a combined $1M in funding

St Lawrence College will upgrade its health sciences learning centres across all three of its campuses thanks to nearly $1M in funding from various donors. SLC Cornwall will transform its paramedic training facilities, equipping the spaces with video-capture capabilities and equipment to offer simulation-based learning. Both SLC Brockville and Kingston will establish Speciality Nursing Labs fitted with state-of-the-art equipment and technology. SLC Dean, Health and Wellness Dr Barb LeBlanc said that in addition to serving SLC students, the nursing labs will also “serve as a destination for upskilling and reskilling current healthcare professionals, inviting providers from across Eastern Ontario and beyond to upgrade or increase their repertoire of specialized nursing credentials.”
