You’ll hear details of the implementation from concept to execution, as well as successes and challenges faced while developing this unique program.

Discover how immersive simulation is creating new learning opportunities in medical training

Critical Event Response Week is a requirement for all of Loma Linda University's graduating medical students. It was implemented to better educate, prepare and evaluate trainee readiness. More than 400 students participated in 2021.

The ARISE project was implemented as part of this week to build and execute a team-based mixed reality triage exercise. Learn how the the ARISE project was developed from concept to execution. We’ll share:

How the project was developed to align with educational objectives.
What hardware and software were used to power and run the simulation.
Demonstration of the triage simulation exercise in action.
Notable outcomes that resulted from the use of mixed reality.
Successes and challenges faced while developing the program.
