Labs during nursing school?

[Philly85]

Random question. In nursing school, are there generally labs for the anatomy/physiology classes, like you had during pre-reqs? Like the standard dissections, etc, etc? Or do you only have clinical labs, like practicing on dummies, etc?

Just wondering.

In my experience, the traditional "labs" were only in the hard science courses. We had "skills labs" in the nursing courses, which we practiced technical nursing skills and got checked off on doing them correctly before being allowed to practice them on actual humans. :)
