Customize Scenarios or Create Your Own with UbiSim’s Intuitive Editor
UbiSim is the only VR nursing platform with an intuitive editor. Nurse educators and simulationists can personally customize UbiSim’s existing peer-reviewed scenarios however they like, create their own immersive VR simulations from scratch, or even use scenarios shared by other nursing programs within our UbiSim Community.
"It builds their confidence when they go into the clinical realm to say, ‘OK, so this is what I learned in simulation, now I can see how I would use that.'"
"I created a whole scenario in less than an hour and a half with the UbiSim Editor - I had labs, X-rays, EKGs... and I still have a flip phone. But it was so easy!"
“There are 16 state competencies and we’re able to map some of them to virtual reality. For example, we built a scenario for hyperglycemia and blood glucose monitoring."
