Skills Lab

Practice for practice: With the move to the KL building, the KL Skills Lab was put into operation in 2016. The general goal was and is to enable students to acquire the basics of clinical knowledge and skills early in their studies and thus optimally prepare them for their first clinical clerkship and their later everyday life in medicine.KL's Skills Lab houses specially equipped practice rooms where trainee doctors can learn clinical skills and practise them independently before applying them on patients. Various models, practice programmes and acting patients are available for this purpose.

• In the procedure room, students can learn and practise practical skills in a larger group and with the support of teachers or tutors.
• In 8 examination/treatment rooms, prospective doctors learn and deepen practical skills and hand movements with the help of models.

The Skills Lab is freely accessible during opening hours and offers an open learning atmosphere and thus the chance to experience self-confidence and routine in self-study. This simulation learning increases the efficiency of the patient learning phase because students are better prepared for patient contact.

Active support in the implementation of practical courses is provided by Sono4You-Krems tutors, among others.

You can find more details on the Sono4You website.

Room bookings can be made directly via the KL (fm@kl.ac.at). Alternatively, courses are offered by the ÖH and the Sono4You group.
