Pre-registration nursing simulation promotes learning in an environment replicating clinical practice and allows nursing students to gain experience before professional registration. Simulation is widely used in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to develop student nurses' skills, knowledge, and attitudes in an environment that allows for error, where patients are not exposed to risk. With the challenges being faced by HEIs in finding clinical placements for pre-registration nursing students, simulation is an effective method of addressing the theory-practice gap while enabling student nurses to gain valuable experience in preparation for registered nursing practice. One area underutilized in simulation activity for pre-registrant nurses in dementia care, with many HEIs not delivering specific dementia simulation learning and having little dementia care included in curriculums. With the increasing numbers of people living with dementia accessing health and social care services, this article explores nursing simulation and its role in preparing student nurses for the care of people living with dementia.

“…Specifically in the realm of dementia care, VR-based training presents a promising avenue (Varela-Aldás et al, 2021). It immerses nursing students in simulated environments that authentically replicate the experiences and difficulties encountered by dementia patients and their families (Um, 2023).…”

Background: Virtual reality (VR) is recognized as a versatile training tool across various domains, including healthcare. In Jordan, dementia is a significant public health concern, accounting for 5.17% of all recorded deaths. Given the complex nature of dementia care, preparing nursing students is crucial. Purpose: This paper explores the feasibility and effectiveness of VR-based empathy training for nursing students, with a growing global interest in VR training applications, despite the need for further study of VR acceptability in the Jordanian context. Methods: This mixed-methods study included 71 nursing students in a psychiatric course at a university in Jordan. Feasibility was assessed through recruitment, retention, adherence, data completion, and implementation fidelity. Pre- and post-intervention assessments measured empathy levels. Thematic analysis of participant feedback provided insights into usability. Results: Recruitment and retention rates were excellent, with a 100% participation rate and 100% retention. The intervention demonstrated a statistically significant enhancement in empathy scores following the program (M_pre = 50.44, SD_pre = 9.24; M_post = 65.17, SD_post = 8.53), t (71) = -23.89, p < 0.001. The thematic analysis highlighted the importance of a user-friendly interface, a supportive learning environment, and engaging content. Conclusion: This study highlights the potential of VR-based training to enhance empathy among nursing students in the context of dementia care. The robust feasibility outcomes and positive user experiences suggest that VR technology can be a valuable addition to nursing curricula, ultimately benefiting patient care and the nursing workforce. Implications for Nursing: Integrating VR into nursing education presents the potential for elevating empathy in nursing students, notably within dementia care. This innovative approach equips prospective healthcare providers with vital skills for delivering more compassionate patient care. Keywords: Dementia, Nursing education, Empathy, Virtual reality, Feasibility studies, Patient-centered care.
