Two new "instructors" have joined the ºÚÈË̽»¨ nursing program. Two high-fidelity avatars have been purchased thanks to a generous $100,000 donation by WellSpan Health to the ºÚÈË̽»¨ Division of Nursing simulation lab. College Trustee Rhona S. Applebaum, Ph.D. gave an additional $50,000 to support their purchase and maintenance in the interactive lab.

The mother and newborn avatars are named Noelle and Tory. Students can take avatars Noelle and Tory’s pulses and blood pressure, perform exams, and even diagnose conditions based on programmed symptoms. And Noelle can simulate giving birth to a baby that has a heartbeat and other vital signs! The avatars join the 11 avatars already at the lab and prepare nursing students for treating real patients. Welcome to Wilson Noelle and Tory!

Have you ever seen unboxing videos on social media where people open up their new electronics etc? Here is our unboxing videos of Noelle and Tory.
