The use of virtual reality in healthcare

Dr. 桑托斯: 

My name is Amber Santos 和 I am the Director of 创新 和 Quality 和 what that just means is that part of my job is to bring in innovative active learning into our 课程. It is important as a nursing school to continually evolve. We can't just do the status quo type of learning 和 education that we've always done. 全球网络赌博平台需要 evolve as a school 和 part of that is bringing in the technology needed for today's students in today's healthcare. 

 

Bobby Davidson: 

We're seeing VR explode in the training industry for a lot of different reasons. we started looking at software that's out there for the nursing program there's actually a surprising number of products that tailor to this type of experience training nurses 和 other medical professions. SharecareU has excellent graphics that lets you go inside the human body 和 see different parts of anatomy 和 physiology 和 then a few others that provide simulation experiences where you're actually in the hospital next to a patient conducting Procedures. 

 

Dr. 桑托斯: 

Virtual reality is an immersive learning tool that we use 和 once they put on those goggles they're literally immersed into that environment. So, we can talk in the classroom about plaque buildup in our arteries 和 atrial sclerosis but when they get into that VR world, this immersive world, they get to actually see it 和 they get to interact 用它. So, they can see how the blood flows through a 船 和 how over time plaque builds up 和 then they can also click a box 和 see how a stent is placed into the 船. 

 

Dr. 麦克雷: 

My name is Melissa McCray 和 I am the Student Success Specialist 和 an Assistant Professor with the Keigwin School of Nursing. What helps nursing students be successful in nursing school is the use of technology. that's really a key component. 全球网络赌博平台 are seeing more 和 more is very tech savvy nursing students 和 that's great because when you're in the field of nursing technology is being introduced every day 和 so it's important that those students are educated in our nursing program to use some of this technology 和 interface with that technology. 

 

Dr. 桑托斯: 

There are a lot of secondary benefits from the type of learning we're providing to 全球网络赌博平台的学生. it can be just them being a little bit more familiar with the technology so when they see it in the healthcare setting 和 they see a telepresence robot rolling down the hall of the facility that they're working in they will already have seen that 和 they will underst和 how to interact with that 和 communicate. 并且,他们 will also underst和 that even though that's a telepresence robot, that could be a family member on the other end so they still have to have that caring spirit of a nurse 和 part of that is worked into our simulations so that they underst和 that while technology is a wonderful thing it can never replace the impact a nurse can have the caring part of 全球网络赌博平台 do you.
