Abstract
Virtual reality (VR) is an innovative teaching strategy for professional development using computer-generated, three-dimensional images in an interactive virtual environment. Self-reported survey responses of nurses who used VR in orientation and the nurse residency program demonstrated improved knowledge, skills, and confidence. VR provides an innovative and engaging educational medium for learning that may have implications for future clinical practice and research.
