tactile vr™

3D Haptic Desktop Simulator for Healthcare Professionals

Clinician using the tactile vr™ simulator.

With the high cost and limited availability of high fidelity simulators and training events, core competency can be achieved through our cost-effective simulator suite. The tactile vr™ simulator suite offers a blended learning solution that combines eLearning with a 3D haptic desktop simulator for healthcare professionals. Haptics is the science of applying tactile sensation to human interaction with computers.

Every topic is strategically chosen by a committee of medical experts. The topics focus on procedures that carry a high risk of infection (HAIs) utilizing evidence-based practice data. See topics below. These are procedures where competency requires kinesthetic and psychomotor learning, which cannot be fully accomplished on a mannequin—and which are problematic to learn on patients. All content offered adheres to recommendations by The Joint Commission, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Content is updated on a regular basis. tactile vr™ improves training and proficiency as an HAI risk management activity and as a critical element of quality care and meeting patient safety goals.

Accreditation is offered with many of our training solutions and these modules can be leveraged repeatedly without supervision or complicated access procedures. tactile vr™ is well suited for private hospitals, teaching institutions, government organizations and simulation centers.
