Abstract: Though there are community health simulations available, these scenarios can be cost prohibitive and lack a sophisticated level of complexity. Further, students using these existing scenarios have all of the work of developing learning objectives and key events check lists done for them. These limitations and a desire to foster critical reasoning in students prompted faculty to develop an activity in which students created a complex client simulation. Cost effective, sophisticated, complex community health scenarios were developed and student clinical reasoning in a safe environment was fostered. Ninety-five percent (19/20) of the students found the activity a valuable learning experience.
