Case Study: Middlesex University builds clinical confidence and readiness with Oxford Medical Simulation’s VR nursing training

Middlesex University completes 15,000 VR nursing scenarios with Oxford Medical Simulation

Middlesex University, a leading institution for Nursing & Midwifery, sought to bridge the gap between theoretical learning and clinical practice for its students. To achieve this, the university partnered with Oxford Medical Simulation to incorporate its virtual reality (VR) nursing scenarios into the curriculum, providing an immersive and safe environment for students to develop essential skills.

Oxford Medical Simulation's VR platform allowed students to individually lead patient care, make clinical decisions, and receive immediate, evidence-based feedback. This solution resulted in over 15,000 completed scenarios, significantly boosting student confidence and clinical competence. Faculty reported higher engagement levels and noted that students felt better prepared for their transition into professional nursing roles, with 90% of postgraduates working in nursing within six months of graduation.
