Immersive virtual reality (IVR) offers a fresh approach to nursing education, allowing students to practice high-stakes scenarios and build real-world confidence.
Hands-on experience is crucial for developing strong clinical judgment and confidence in nursing education. However, recent graduates still face challenges in transitioning to actual patient care.
IVR provides standardized, evidence-based, and accessible clinical experiences for nursing students, helping them to master skills and build nursing competencies.
By integrating IVR with traditional simulations and classroom learning, nursing schools can address diverse learning styles and bridge the academic-practice gap.
