The Center for Nursing Discovery (CND) is celebrating Healthcare Simulation Week September 16-20. Healthcare Simulation Week celebrates global professionals who use simulation to improve the safety, effectiveness, and efficiency of healthcare delivery. This week also raises awareness in communities nationwide about how healthcare simulation is leading us to safe, more knowledgeable patient care.
