For more than five years, the Faculty of Nursing’s  (CSLC) has guided thousands of nursing students through scenarios involving “patients” experiencing cardiac arrests, mental illness and domestic abuse, among other health-care events. With the addition of two new faculty members, the next phase for the CSLC will also make it a hub for simulation research.

Sandra Goldsworthy joins the ��ݮ����Ƶ���� (from Georgian College/York University Collaborative BScN program) as an associate professor and research professor in simulation education, one of the very few dedicated nursing simulation researchers in the country.

Assistant professor Linda Duffett-Leger’s research in health technology examines ways to engage consumers in the design of technologies to better meet their health-care needs and develops e-learning tools for nursing students.

Both plan to use Nursing’s state-of-the-art simulation lab to explore their specific focus areas.

Duffett-Leger is part of a cluster of hires in multiple faculties for biomedical engineering across campus. She was brought on board to develop the critical role of nursing in the university’s  research strategy.
