Case Study: Teesside University builds nursing confidence and clinical readiness with Oxford Medical Simulation

Teesside University adds 1-week simulated practice learning with Oxford Medical Simulation

Teesside University's nursing program sought to enhance student preparedness for clinical placements by integrating innovative technology into its curriculum. To meet this challenge, the university partnered with Oxford Medical Simulation to implement its virtual reality (VR) clinical simulations as a core part of its new Simulated Practice Learning Week.

Oxford Medical Simulation provided the platform for immersive VR scenarios that allowed students to safely practice clinical skills, critical thinking, and communication. The results were overwhelmingly positive, with students reporting significant improvements in their knowledge, skills, and confidence levels. The solution helped students feel better prepared for real-world practice, specifically citing increased comfort with patient assessments and interprofessional communication.
