VRpatients for Educators / Trainers

You need an easily deployable and customizable way to educate, train and assess your students to ensure they are fully prepared for the stress and complexity of patient care in the field.

But there are obstacles. 

Classroom training may not be possible. Educators have been forced to pivot to remote learning platforms, making traditional sim training in a classroom impossible.

Traditional sim training is limiting. Abstract exercises don’t fully prepare students for the complexities of actual patient care, particularly HALO (High Acuity Low Occurrence) skills, and require repetitive 1:1 interaction between the student and instructor, taking valuable time.

It’s difficult to predict student readiness. Success in a classroom doesn’t always translate to performance under stressful, real life situations.

Accurately assessing students is a challenge. Identifying knowledge or skill deficits is often subjective and can be skewed by instructors’ unintended cues and biases.

What makes VRpatients so different?

Our intuitive clinical case authoring tool allows you to build content specific to your training objectives, and deploy it from anywhere. Available online or in fully immersive virtual reality, VRpatients gives you the flexibility you need to train and assess students objectively, without the requirements of a classroom or sim lab.

The VRpatients application also features:

Robust physiological engine with case logic

“Build it how you want it” intuitive case authoring tool

Lifelike patient modeling, realistic moulage and animations presented in living environments

A better way to educate, train & assess EMS providers

You want graduates who demonstrate sound clinical judgment and provide the best possible care for their patients. VRpatients offers many advantages that traditional classroom training alone cannot provide.

Consistent training: Using protocols predetermined by the trainer, the platform reacts to the chosen course of treatment in real time, providing a consistent experience from user to user.

Objective assessments: VRpatients’ enhanced grading rubric provides a computer generated assessment of the user’s treatment decisions at the conclusion of each case, eliminating trainer subjectivity.

Limitless case scenarios: The intuitive medical case authoring tool allows users the unmatched ability to modify existing content or create new content tailored to specific training objectives.

Increased efficiency & reduced costs: Virtual reality training can be done wherever there is WiFi, and in a shorter time frame.

Improved retention, better outcomes

Virtual reality simulations immerse users into real life, stress-inducing environments and clinical case scenarios that can’t be replicated with traditional education, training and assessments. The result? Graduates who are better trained, more confident and have higher pass rates.

Z

Improved Retention

VR engages the senses, emotions and cognitive functions of the brain, tapping into the most powerful aspects of retention.

Z

Increased Comprehension

VR-based teaching makes abstract content more concrete and easier to understand.

Z

Better Performance

Those trained with VR are able to perform procedures more accurately, confidently and with fewer mistakes.

VR Comparison of Traditional vs. Virtual learning

Virtual Reality simulations create an enriched, sensory experience that leads to improved knowledge retention. A study conducted at Miami Children’s Health System showed the retention level a year after a VR training session can be close to 80%, compared to 20% retention after only one week with traditional training.
