Registered nurses Dennin Orona, left, and Julie Carlton demonstrate taking vital signs on an advanced training mannequin in the simulation lab at Hutchinson Regional Medical Center. Among other details, the mannequins can have a pulse and their pupils can constrict in response to light. The simulation lab is a partnership between the hospital and Hutchinson Community College.
