Advancing Nursing Education Through Virtual Reality Training: A Revolutionary Approach to Ensuring Patient Safety
摘要
Ensuring patient safety is a primary concern in the healthcare industry, and nursing education plays a vital role in providing future professionals with the necessary skills to identify potential risks. Traditional training methods often lack the immersive and interactive experience that students need. In this paper, we proposed and implemented a Virtual Reality (VR) application as an educational tool to help students learn the best clinical practices they should follow in a hospital setting. This application created a 360-degree VR environment for the simulation lab, where the user needs to identify unsafe clinical practices in this virtual environment. By leveraging innovative VR technology, students can engage with virtual hospital scenes in a controlled and risk-free setting, allowing them to develop a deeper understanding of potential hazards and unsafe practices through the VR training application.
