Illustration of nuclear bomb explosion over city

You are a nurse with training in disaster management living near Berlin.

One morning you wake up to the horrendous news that a nuclear bomb has exploded in the city centre. You can hardly believe your eyes when you open the curtains and see the mushroom cloud billowing above the city.

This simulation exercise will take you through some of the options available to you in the immediate aftermath the nuclear explosion. When you have completed the exercise, continue on to the next step.
