What are the contraindications? 🚫
The main contraindications to virtual reality are as follows:
- Photosensitive epilepsy: People suffering from photosensitive epilepsy may be particularly sensitive to visual stimuli such as rapid movements or flashing lights. Use of virtual reality is possible, but the duration of exposure must be adapted and under medical supervision.
- Severe cognitive impairment: People with advanced dementia or severe cognitive impairment may have difficulty understanding or interacting with virtual environments, which can lead to confusion, agitation or anxiety.
- Schizophrenia or other psychotic disorders: immersive VR environments can induce or accentuate symptoms of dissociation from reality, which is problematic in patients suffering from psychotic disorders.
What is the process for getting set up at my facility? 🏥
After validating the project with all stakeholders, we send you the virtual reality equipment and create your online access. On a date defined together, we organize a day of deployment(which consists of connecting the equipment to the Internet and checking that it is working properly) and training for professionals. Of course, we're with you every step of the way!
How long does it take to train and get the hang of it? ⏱
Our training is carried out in two stages:
- A first theoretical part (1h) with a detailed presentation of the equipment and our interface.
- A second part of practical training (1h30) organized by pairs of professionals. Several slots can be set aside, depending on the number of professionals to be trained. This avoids monopolizing all the staff for half a day or a whole day.
Who are the people involved in the implementation of the project? 🧑🤝🧑
