Virtual Reality & Simulation in Nursing Education
A Complete Immersive Virtual Simulation Lab
Benefits of Virtual Reality Simulation Training in Nursing Education
Effective
Learners are fully immersed with a high level of perceptual fidelity giving them the opportunity for practical training and behaviorial change.
Resource Saving
Increase throughput and access to simulation - complex clinical situations can be started in seconds, with minimal faculty resources.
Interactive
Students learn by doing; they are more engaged, better prepared, and develop new skills faster.
Engaging
The highly emotional nature of VR makes all the difference - learners are physically present and emotionally invested with their patients.
Repeatable
Repetition is an essential part of the learning process; UbiSim allows students to practice until mastery.
Standardized
We use a powerful physiological model for our virtual patients, so all learners have a standardized experience that prepares them for the Next Generation NCLEX Exam.
How Immersive VR Simulation Helps Nurse Learners Develop Clinical Judgment
Discover how immersive VR simulation can sharpen your prelicensure nurse learners’ Clinical Judgment skills and get them ready to practice effectively.
How Virtual Reality in Nursing Education Works
In three simple steps, learners can practice specific clinical scenarios and receive instant feedback.
1. Choose Your Scenarios
Choose among a growing number of scenarios or customize existing ones with a variety of visual, physical, and behavioral situations.
2. Learners Train & Debrief
Learners practice clinical situations in a safe and standardized environment while developing essential critical thinking and communication skills.
3. Review Results
Debriefing with personalized feedback and audio/visual playback is available upon completion of each session. Faculty has access to aggregated data.

University of West Florida Increases Student Engagement, Confidence, and Opportunity
Students can understand the theory and the concepts but they can’t just put it into practice. It takes a while for them to develop that. I think that’s why I like simulation so much. It allows us the time to actually apply what we learn in class."

Why UbiSim
Dedicated to Nursing
We work exclusively on nursing simulation and immersive, interactive Virtual Reality. Our focus allows us to build a platform theat responds best to the unique needs of nursing educators and nursing students, as well as preparation for the Next Generation NCLEX Exam.
Customizable Scenarios
Our pre-built scenarios are entirely customizable. Using our authoring tool, nursing educators and technicians can change any parameters in our scenarios or even create their own.
Wireless & Truly Interactive
No menus or point-and-click! Running on wireless VR headsets, we use intuitive hand gestures for a genuinely immersive and intuitive experience. We focus on comfort and realism for the most effective learning.
"Having a regular manikin simulation has been great, but seeing a patient’s status and reaction changing before you, you can’t do that without virtual reality,” “With the headset on, students see the patient’s face changing. They can see a look of concern as the patient turns pale. It should trigger the nurse to look at the chart and take the right steps to save the patient.”

"It’s the closest we get to the clinical setting without actually being there. The VR system works well. We can move the patient and get their vitals as we would with a real-life patient. It’s pretty life-like.”

"Our students are telling us that UbiSim experiences are by far the best part of their day.”
