Sentinel City Simulation
https://www.sentinelu.com/learn/community-and-population-health
Sentinel City will allow you to learn critical thinking and reasoning skills in a community health experience. It will also provide the opportunity to explore some of the many determinants of health contributing to the health status of members of a simulated city.
1: Demographics, Neighborhood Safety, Scavenger Hunt
2: Windshield Survey
These tools help you gather data on the SC community to then discuss in your paper. You will not submit these tools for evaluation. You will summarize the findings in your task 1 needs assessment.
- Demographics Assessment
- Neighborhood Community Safety Inventory
- Scavenger Hunt
- Windshield Survey
Now that you have reviewed the task requirements and Sentinel City guide you are ready to begin!
Print this list so you know where you will need to go once you start in the simulation. You will be required to visit these 12 designated sites within Sentinel City.
- Interfaith Church of Sentinel City
- Better Health Clinic
- Sentinel City Department of Transportation
- Sentinel City School District
- ABC Daycare
- Sentinel City Affordable Housing Project
- City Hall
- Radio BUZZ 96.5FM
- Sentinel City Healthcare System (Hospital)
- Lily’s
- Joe’s Grocery
- Sentinel City Department of Parks and Recreation
B 1. Analyze the collected data using concepts of epidemiology and health determinants.
Refer to these 3 sections of your COS for additional information:
Epidemiology and Environmental Health
Epidemiological Data
Application of Epidemiology
Your goal is to choose about 4-5 health concerns you identified in section B. Prove that each of these are significant health concerns by discussing your collected data. Discuss contributing factors/variables within SC that may be adding to each health concern.
C 1. Identify three top health concerns in Sentinel City based on your findings from section B-1. Discuss why each problem (health concern) is relevant.

Each identified health concern will be aligned with a related Healthy People 2020 objective or goal. See linked HP 2020 video here for further explanation.

C 2. Choose ONE of the three problems from C1 that you believe is a significant health concern in Sentinel City. Discuss community resources (e.g., Sentinel City™ Affordable Housing Project, Better Health Clinic) that are available to address this #1 health concern.
C 3. Identify a primary prevention topic based on the problem/concern selected in C2.
You will not necessarily use the same topic in C229, since your home community may have different health needs.
Section D. Review what you learned from the (four) assessment strategies used in Sentinel City. Next, discuss how you can apply this knowledge to assess your own community.
Section E. Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
