In August, a team from the New Mexico State University College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences launched a new immersive virtual reality program to enhance clinical nutrition training for students in food, nutrition and dietetics programs. "Nutrition Counselor VR: Training Program for Health Practitioners" focuses on emotional communication, counseling and clinical procedures.
While wearing a virtual reality headset, users can interact with four different patients and talk through different approaches for each person's care. The program offers different pathways, so that each time a student uses it and makes different choices, the patient may respond differently, and the session could end in a different way.
