Embodied Labs - Immersive Training Platform

What the VR labs provided our students was the chance to embody the patient experience which, in effect, humanized the patient for the students. Instead of reading about a case study of a patient with progressive Alzheimer's, they became the patient with progressive Alzheimer's.

In the future, students working in a clinical setting will hopefully have more empathy, compassion, and understanding for their clients because they may see that patient as a complex person instead of a clinical diagnosis alone.

I believe that the VR experience helped me not only understand disease processes better, but understand what a patient goes through — through our own eyes — helps me better therapeutically communicate as well as learn practically how to do that. All of those things I believe are going to enhance patient centered care — and that’s what we want to do as nurses!

I think this is something that anyone who works with the aging population should do.

We really appreciate your extension of the Labs to us. It has made a great deal of difference for our students, especially those going into the medical field. I will continue to share my experience whenever possible and appropriate. If our funding increases, I will certainly reach out to you again. This is an amazing program and I feel it is very important to continue to have it available for our students.

Transform the way you care

When you step into the shoes of the people you assist or care for, you become aware of their emotions, cognitive or sensory deficiencies - an experience that no textbooks, readings that describe symptoms, or hours of simulations can equal.

Embodied Labs adds a unique dimension to the prism of perspective that is transformational for teams across organizations and industries.

Our first-person immersive experiences nurture actionable empathy, which results in a culture of care.
