State-of-the-art facilities
Located along Grand Rapid’s Medical Mile, the clinical simulation department operates out of two state–of–the–art simulation facilities. The Corewell Health Clinical Simulation Center, at 275 Michigan St. NE, is a 10,000-square-foot facility located directly across the street from the Butterworth Hospital campus. Our second location is a 25,000-square-foot facility located at 109 Michigan St. NE within the Doug Meijer Medical Innovation Building.
The mission of clinical simulation at Corewell Health West Michigan is to transform patient safety, quality, education, and research through experiential learning and technological advancements in a controlled training environment.
Facilities and services are available to Corewell Health team members, as well as those external to Corewell Health.
Always discovering
As part of its vision, the Corewell Health Clinical Simulation Center aims to provide access to research for new discoveries, technology, and treatments.
The Center allows for the ability to test advanced technology, medical devices, and procedures in a secure, yet realistic environment. It offers physicians an arena to conduct research on medical devices, equipment, and simulation education as a way to advance health care.
Fees and clinical simulation request information
In today’s health care, we don’t just "practice medicine"—we prepare to deliver optimal care. Simulation enables teams to learn and improve their skills without risking patient safety. It allows providers to perfect new procedures and technology.
