College of Central Florida to host ribbon cutting

The College of Central Florida invites the community to a ribbon cutting for the remodeled Building 19 at the CF Ocala Campus, 3001 S.W. College Road. On Thursday, April 2, at 10:30 a.m., the Ocala Metro Chamber & Economic Partnership will join college officials to cut the ribbon for the newly renovated building, which will be the home of CF’s award-winning Emergency Medical Services program.

The $7 million project will provide expanded cardiac and medical simulation space for future EMTs and paramedics to gain hands-on experience in realistic settings that include an apartment, ambulance and emergency room.

Attendees will be invited to tour the classrooms and simulation labs where emergency responders will train with high-fidelity patient simulators and virtual and alternate reality technology.

RSVP requested for ribbon cutting event: CF.edu/RibbonCutting or pr@cf.edu.
