The change in curriculum and increasing need for active healthcare professionals providing quality patient care has emphasised simulation-based regular training, reskilling and simulation centres to deliver these. However, there is limited literature on how to establish a simulation centre and overcome the challenges relating to developing faculty and maintaining the financial viability of these centres. Our review focuses on this gap in the current literature. The findings are presented as 1) identification of the methods of establishing a simulation centre, 2) setting up the resource in a simulation centre and 3) faculty development and curricular integration in a simulation centre. The space of a simulation centre depends on the organisation’s or training body’s needs. There is no single design which is recommended. Establishing a simulation centre should consider the needs of the organisation, educators and learners along with the available resources and ensure that curriculum integration and standards are met.

The purpose of this article is to present a model for simultaneous optimization of pricing, marketing, distribution and sales decisions. Due to the high importance of time and costs along the chain, this model will be very attractive. In previous studies, these decisions have not been considered simultaneously. This paper introduces a bi-objective model including utility maximization and profit maximization. Then it was solved using LP metric method in GAMS optimization software and Gurobi Optimizer in Python environment. After solving the model, the decision variables have been obtained and the model has been subjected to sensitivity analysis. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that optimizing distribution network elements simultaneously saves time and money and improves distribution network performance. A trade-off matrix and Pareto chart is provided in which the numbers on the main diagonal represent the most optimal state for each objective. In addition, a comparison was made between the results of the GAMS and Gurobi Optimizer in the Python showing that in larger sizes the Gurobi Optimizer delivers the desired results in a more reasonable time. Also, the results show the sensitivity of the model to the competitors' prices.
