3B Scientific Patient Care Manikin Pro

Build and evaluate patient care and nurse aid competencies

The 3B Scientific^® Patient Care Manikin PRO for simulation in healthcare was developed for scenario-based training of patient care and advanced nursing skills.

The patient care manikin simulates an adult, life-size patient with interchangeable genitals. It can be positioned like a real patient with natural movement of the arms, legs, and joints. The patient care manikin can also be positioned to sit upright in bed for treatments. Built for long-term use, this manikin is made of durable, unbreakable, and water-resistant plastics to withstand the rigors of everyday training.
