Abstract:
1)Training elderly simulated patients (SPs) will enhance elderly persons' contribution to education. Such training will also help universities contribute to the community and help elderly persons be more productive in their activities.
2)Training programs for elderly SPs and follow–up seminars focusing on the display of symptoms requested by participants were held. The aim of this program was to train SPs to participate in the preclinical educational activities of the university. The participants evaluated the program to be satisfactory.
