Facility

Rosenfeld Hall

The UCLA Simulation Center is a full-service healthcare training center located across the street from Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center at 700 Westwood Plaza. Previously known as Learning Resource Center (LRC), our building was recently renovated to become Rosenfeld Hall thanks to a generous gift from Eugene and Maxine Rosenfeld.

Rosenfeld Hall is the home of simulation training for UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine and UCLA Health, across all three levels of the building:

• Level A - Home of technology-based simulations, with five inpatient simulation rooms, four exam rooms, a classroom and an auditorium.
• Level 1 - Home of Standardized Patient Program, with sixteen exam rooms, four simulation rooms, and a large flexible classroom.
• Level 2 - Home of Center for Advanced Surgical & Interventional Technology (CASIT), with a Research & Development lab and education spaces for surgical training.

Rosenfeld Hall expands the Sim Center's capacity to provide valuable experiential healthcare training to the DGSOM and UCLA Health community, with additional rooms for scenario-based training using standardized patient actors and computerized patient simulators, as well as dedicated spaces for procedural skills training sessions, conferences, and classes. The building holds regular courses and events for medical, nursing, and health sciences students, as well as residents, staff nurses, practicing physicians, and allied health & public health professionals.

Geffen Hall Sim Center Annex

In addition, the Sim Center has a dedicated space housed at Geffen Hall. The UCLA Simulation Center Annex in Geffen Hall Room 301 offers three multipurpose rooms for simulation education and procedural task training, as well as an innovative smart locker system for contactless rentals of task trainers and simulation equipment.

Our expanded educational facilities provide a low-risk immersive learning environment that allows learners to enhance their clinical abilities, gain proficiencies in the latest medical technologies, and build their interprofessional teamwork skills, with the goal of creating a safer, kinder, and more equitable healthcare system.
