Essay / Virtual Reality and Nursing - 1019
The intention of virtual reality is to help the user understand, evaluate, and manipulate the computer-generated environment (Weiss and Jessel, 1998). The practice and use of computerized capabilities is rapidly increasing in nursing schools and health care. An evolving computer tactic for nursing learning is the application of virtual reality simulation. This three-dimensional computer-built information tool mimics real-life patients in a safe environment, allowing recurring rehearsal sessions, it involves clinical assessment, helps students learn about different situations among patients and also offers immediate response . It is also an effort to keep costs low and make education more “realistic.” Students who practice various strategies using virtual reality simulation present a wide range of learning experiences. According to Carol Kilmon, Leonard Brown, Sumit Gosh, and Arthur Mikitiuk, students are examples of scopes. The application of computers to educate nursing students is at a crossroads as the clinical presentation and abilities of nursing students continue to pose challenges for nurse educators. For starters, nurse educators are overwhelmed with the combination of nursing theory and evidence-based clinical practice for students. Applying evidence-based practices can help nurses reduce significant gaps between nursing practice and theory (Kilmon et al., 2010). Furthermore, much of today's healthcare has actually changed due to the increasing number of people with acute problems, technological advances, reduced length of stay for patients in the hospital, and the abundance of regulation. The method applied was simulation-based training on terrains characterized as complex, as well as in...... middle of paper ......rtification appropriate method (Weiss and Jessel, 1998). The study thus strengthens the ability of nursing faculty to address the complexity of teaching in today's healthcare context. Virtual reality simulation is an innovative computer-created technological educational device that can bridge the gap between theory and practice for nursing students and transform nursing learning by reducing student worries and anxieties related to nursing. patient well-being.ReferencesAbrams, R.
