Simulation and Community Health

• Simulation in healthcare education used since
  1500s but more widely used since 1950s.
• Simulation in nursing education has focused
  around medical surgical and critical care
  nursing.
• Simulation in Community Health has focused around
  large scale disaster management or the community
