Join us to support the Simulation Technology Fund

Prepare the Next Generation of Nurses and PAs with Leading-Edge Simulation Technology

Imagine preparing for a high-stakes moment—like delivering life-saving care—without ever practicing it first. Just as pilots train in flight simulators before flying a plane, nursing and physician assistant students rely on simulation labs to prepare for the complex, real-world challenges they’ll face in health care.

At the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing at UC Davis, our advanced simulation technology—life-like mannequins that breathe, blink and respond like real patients—deliver high-touch experiences in low-stakes settings. Students build confidence and critical clinical skills in a safe, supportive environment. This technology allows our students to practice everything from routine procedures to emergency interventions, developing the hands-on experience they need before stepping into hospitals and clinics.

Your support of the Simulation Technology Fund directly impacts the future of health care education. Gifts help us purchase, upgrade and maintain these essential tools, ensuring our students are equipped to provide high-quality, compassionate care from day one.

With your gift, you're not just investing in equipment—you’re investing in people and their potential. You’re helping students master vital skills, reduce medical errors and improve patient outcomes.

Join us in empowering the next generation of health care leaders. Every dollar makes a difference.

Give today and be part of transforming health care education—one simulation at a time.
