Clinical Simulation in Nursing Education: Immersive Educational Tech for Nurses and Midwives

Abstract

Virtual reality simulation has revolutionized the healthcare sector by fusing human skills with cutting-edge technology to promote patient-centered care, clinical efficacy, and a compassionate digital healthcare ecosystem. In order to enhance nursing education by providing dynamic and engaging learning settings, the goal of this research is to assess the transformative potential of virtual reality. Through familiarization with state-of-the-art technology through the use of immersive pedagogy and technology framework, the paper proposed a fresh way to nursing education and clinical practice. Student nurses can fully immerse themselves in a personalized virtual reality as if they were actually there, interact with their surroundings, and learn in a dynamic and pedagogically informative digital ecosystem by donning VR headgear or goggles. Virtual reality can be used to create incredibly lifelike simulations that allow trainee nurses to practice problem-solving skills without really putting themselves in danger as clinical simulation offers deep understanding of real-world situations.
