Thanks to the seamless collaboration between all teachers, student helpers and administrative colleagues for the HKU Information Day which was held on November 3, 2018, we received an overwhelming number of visitors, including secondary school students, teachers, parents and the public, throughout the day to provide admission information and to showcase our all-round nursing curriculum and state-of-the-art teaching facilities. In particular, we were very proud and excited to present the advanced Simulation Training Centre and Nursing Clinical Skills Laboratories in the Pauline Chan Building, where our visitors were amazed by the sophisticated and simulated clinical environment with the use of computerised simulators, robots, VR CAVE (Virtual Reality Cave Automatic Virtual Environment), 3D graphics and 360-degree videos. These teaching facilities are essential elements for us to create the best learning environment for our students to practice total patient care and clinical decision making.
