At 37 training centers of the Helios Hospitals Group, nursing professionals immerse themselves in a lifelike patient room in which they can move around freely.
The virtual patient room revolutionizes the training of nurses
The Helios hospitals expand their training program into virtual reality: Nursing staff learn important work steps from everyday hospital life down to the last detail on simulated patients in a virtually reconstructed patient room. Healthcare VR training at 37 locations combines the flexibility of digital training with the physical experience of on-site training.

Training centers now ready for VR
-
Step-by-step learning in real-life simulations
-
Virtual patient room
01\Realistic learning environment
-
Natural interactions with hand tracking
02\Intuitive UI
Tracking built into the VR headset enables natural interactions with the environment and objects with your own hands, just like in real life.
VR makes invisible hospital germs visible: Nurses clean their hands for 30 seconds at a disinfectant dispenser. The VR headset captures the movements and visualizes if and how bacteria disappear from the hand.

Lifelike simulated patients
03\Highend-VR-Training
Nurses train in realistic simulations of everyday care scenarios. Patients appear alive, move their eyes, and make visual contact.
-
Digital patient file
04\Smart Data
The patient's health data and medical record are available in the virtual patient file, which prepares nurses to provide proper care.
Nurses use the virtual patient file to calculate the patient's nutritional needs and select the appropriate nutrition for the PEG tube.
-
Flexible learning with no time pressure
05\Scalable training solution
In VR, nurses can safely practice situations they've never or rarely practiced before, as often as they want. This allows them to develop a routine, even for tasks that rarely occur in their daily work. Training centers can target staff deficiencies and systematically improve care delivery.
Training content can be customized to include doctors, patients, and family members.
“In true-to-life virtual patient rooms, our nurses learn the nursing trade: from hand disinfection to changing a PEG tube. VR brings a new quality to our training.”
Eveline Schlick-Soffner, Educational Center Helios-Kliniken
“Initial performance results show that virtual reality improves learning and results in higher GPAs than a non-VR control group.”
