The aim of this study is to analyse the differences in the effectiveness of indoor and outdoor disaster preparedness simulations to improve the competence of first aid in emergency response phase among trained lay people in Surakarta Municipality. This study used a quasi-experimental study with pre-posttest with control group design with real treatment of respondents who get action in the form of simulation. Sampling technique in this study is the total sampling of all trained lay people assisted Surakarta Health Polytechnic with number of 120 people. The t test results showed that the value t = 10.393> t table (0.05, df 39) = 8.750 with a confidence level of 95% indicates α = 0.00 <0.05. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in effectiveness between the simulation of indoor and outdoor disaster preparedness in improving the competence of first aid in the emergency response among trained lay people in Surakarta Municipality. Outdoor simulation is more effective than indoor simulation in improving the competence of first aid in the emergency response among trained lay people in Surakarta Municipality.
