- Abstract
Purpose: To train/educate burn rehabilitation staff (RN/NP, OT, PT, tech, assistants) to be more comfortable and satisfied with VR treatment use. ● Methods: Training protocols & pre/post questionnaires were conducted with burn rehab staff for program development & training education. Burn rehabilitation included inpatient, outpatient, and OR staff. ● Results: 21 participants were included in the study. VR was applied using two & three-dimensional videos and applications. The findings demonstrated increased comfortability and satisfaction of staff post-training & program development. Few side effects were reported. ● Conclusion: Burn rehabilitation staff is hesitant to use VR in this setting due to lack of experience or knowledge of VR. However, VR can increase staff comfortability and satisfaction, once they are appropriately educated & trained. Thus, increasing the use of VR in a burn unit setting has been proven to be a beneficial treatment option for patients. ● Future Practice: VR can be utilized within other departments in a hospital setting. (i.e.dementia, dialysis, OR’s, anxiety, other mental health disorders).
