Revolutionizing Emergency Response Training with VR Simulations

Emergency response, as the term suggests, includes procedures to be followed in case of an emergency. Healthcare professionals undertake specialized training to perform tasks and handle situations when the need arises. To provide effective training, the training must be realistic and comprehensive, presenting learners with detailed feedback and analysis of performance. Now, disasters and emergencies […]

Develop Clinical Judgement Skills with MedVR Ed Simulations

Clinical judgement is a collective term that includes key skills like effective communication, keen observation, critical thinking, teamwork, collaboration, and knowledge of best practices. It encapsulates the ability of healthcare professionals to assimilate vast amounts of information, interpret nuanced cues, and distill them into informed decisions. It is not merely about following protocols or algorithms […]

What Makes Virtual Reality So Popular in Clinical Education?

Clinical simulation is a beneficial pedagogical approach allowing medical students to practice decision-making and clinical skills while rehearsing the behaviors. Besides, it also works as an effective tool for educational models that evaluate skills learning through different real-life situational experiences without causing any risk to institutional resources or clients. Often it becomes a challenge for […]

UT Southwestern and MedVR Education Revolutionize EVS Training with VR

UT Southwestern (UTSW)  has recently received recognition and national distinction for “patient satisfaction, patient safety, and quality of care” from various reviewing bodies.  A crucial element contributing to this success is its Environmental Services (EVS) department. Quality environmental services, in turn, are a direct result of rigorous training. In a move to introduce innovative immersive […]

18 Reasons to Choose MedVR Education as your VR Training Partner

Healthcare training requires a good deal of hands-on practice to gain experience, build confidence and improve muscle memory. Practicing in realistic environments is essential to get accustomed to real-world situations and simulations prove to be the cornerstone of clinical training.
