This month, UNMC College of Medicine faculty incorporated a new course to prepare fourth-year students for their upcoming residency using simulation to gain hands on experience and practice patient safety in their transition from student to resident doctor.
The course was led by Dr. Abbey Fingeret and Dr. Jill Zabih. Pictured is the surgical section, where students entering General Surgery, Urology, OB-GYN, Orthopedics, Neurosurgery, Cardiology, Vascular and ENT had a chance to practice common procedures in an operating room, facilitated by Dr. Jennifer Leinicke.
