Driscoll Cuts Ribbon to $2.7 Million Training Center in Rio Grande Valley
On February 13, Driscoll leadership and Rio Grande Valley officials gathered to celebrate a ribbon cutting ceremony for a new training center. The training center houses three simulation labs that will replicate the day-to-day reality of working in a hospital or clinic, such as practicing for routine or emergency scenarios. Driscoll has invested $2.7 million into the project so far. This is Driscoll’s second training center, and the first pediatric training center in the Rio Grande Valley.
The facility is expected to provide more than 1,100 hours of training a year to personnel across multiple disciplines. Employees, ranging from new graduates to seasoned medical staff, will be among those receiving training. The training center will also help staff the newly opened Driscoll Children's Hospital Rio Grande Valley, the region’s first designated freestanding children’s hospital.
