After working for fifteen years in the engineering sector, I realized that all of my hard work became nothing more than a dusty stack of CD-ROMs on a government official’s bookshelf.

As the oldest in a family of six, caring for children and infants was part of my upbringing. This native comfort level was helpful when I became involved in EMS during high school and college. Working as a cardiac surgical ICU nurse in the 1980’s.

New education with VR training from Health Scholars to help rural Florida EMS agencies maintain critical pediatric emergency skills

Health Scholars, recognized for voice-directed virtual reality (VR) clinical training, today launched a study to assess the value of VR training among emergency medical services (EMS) personnel in three Colorado fire districts.

The new VR applications will provide a remote, scalable way for first responders to practice properly assessing and providing care during a pediatric emergency.

Expansion of online training will include virtual reality assisting medical departments in ACLS training.

Virtual reality is the most effective way to train your medical team. And it’s especially valuable now, when people are looking for ways to keep their skills up without gathering too close together in a classroom or in high-fidelity simulation scenarios.

Funding will be utilized for expansion of clinical training simulations and virtual simulation technologies.

At the 2019 Society for Simulation in Healthcare annual conference Health Scholars shared a sneak peek of a new VR title for Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) simulation training and competed in the IMSH SimVentors Showcase.
