"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."
