Policies

Quick ILC Policy Guide for Learners, Staff, Faculty, and Visitors

Attire

Wear clinic-appropriate attire (eg. scrubs, white lab coats) when involved in simulated clinical activities. No open-toed shoes as there are needles and other sharp objects in the Center. No cologne, perfumes, and strong scents as these may cause an allergic reaction to others.

Food and Beverages

No food or open beverages in the simulation rooms, clinic suites, or control rooms. Beverages must have lids. Catering is permitted only in debriefing rooms or project classroom and must be provided through LKSC catering services.

Respectful Environment

No drop-in visitors are allowed. Speak softly to avoid disruption to learning activities and the work of ILC staff. Leave all spaces as you found them (clear trash, food, put tables back in their proper layout, etc).

Cameras, Photography, and Recordings

Cameras are located throughout the Immersive Learning Center and may be on at any time. No recording or photographs will be published unless a written consent is signed. Note: medical students sign a global consent upon entry to Stanford School of Medicine.

Cadavers, Cadaver Parts, and Live Animals

These items are not permitted in the Immersive Learning Center.

Minors

No minors under the age of 18 are permitted in the Immersive Learning Center unless they are with a Stanford-approved learning activity (ex: Med School 101, Health Matters). No staff, faculty, or learners may bring their children into the Immersive Learning Center.
