1. An interactive education system for teaching patient care to a user, the system comprising:
- a maternal simulator having a mechanism for providing translational and selective rotational movement to a fetal simulator in a birthing simulation; and
the fetal simulator to be used in conjunction with the maternal simulator and separate from the maternal simulator in post-birth simulations, wherein the fetal simulator includes a device for selective engagement with the mechanism of the maternal simulator;
wherein the fetal simulator is not removeable from the maternal simulator during birthing simulation when the device is selectively engaged and wherein the fetal simulator is removeable from the maternal simulator during birthing simulation when the device is not selectively engaged.

Abstract
An interactive education system for teaching patient care to a user is described. The system comprises a patient simulator; a virtual instrument for use with the patient simulator in performing patient care activities; means for sensing an interaction between the virtual instrument and the simulator, and means for providing feedback to the user regarding the interaction between the virtual instrument and the simulator. In one aspect, the system includes a maternal simulator, a fetal simulator, and a neonatal simulator.
