Why VR is useful for this subject
Conventional first aid training relies heavily on scenario description and role play. VR adds a first-person environment where learners have to notice hazards, prioritise actions and work through the pressure of an unfolding situation, without any risk to a real casualty.
Who it is for
- First aid training providers
- Workplace first aiders
- Employers with first-aid-at-work duties
- Education and vocational training

Does this replace our first aid course?
No. It is designed to sit alongside instructor-led first aid training as a practical, repeatable rehearsal tool, not as a replacement for a qualification course.
Can learners repeat a scenario?
Yes, scenarios are designed to be reset and repeated, which is one of the main practical advantages of using VR for this kind of rehearsal.
