abstract="OBJECTIVE: This innovation in simulation evaluated the effectiveness of a time sensible, low-cost simulation on prelicensure nursing students' knowledge and confidence in responding to public health emergencies. <br><br>METHOD: One hundred eighty-two nursing students, in groups of 5, participated in a 75-min emergency preparedness disaster simulation. A mixed methods design was used to evaluate students' knowledge and confidence in disaster preparedness, and satisfaction with the simulation. <br><br>RESULTS: Students reported an increase in knowledge and confidence following the disaster simulation and satisfaction with the experience. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Prelicensure nursing programs can replicate this low cost, time sensible disaster simulation to effectively educate students in emergency preparedness.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
