College of Nursing, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences
The college opened two VR learning rooms with a total of 11 workstations at the Helen Glass Centre for Nursing in September 2022.
In the platform, students work together in pairs, with one student as an “active player” and another as a “driver.” The active player wears a VR headset and hand controls and acts as a bedside nurse, caring for a patient in one of several pre-programmed scenarios, while the driver lets the nurse know what the patient needs and acts as the patient by selecting the appropriate pre-recorded responses.
