Is ‘Multiplayer’ VR Simulation Missing the Point? | A Fireside Chat on Nursing Education

Short Summary In this candid conversation, VRpatients’ Director of Marketing & Expert in Residence, Devin Marble, sits down with Nurse Practitioner and Educator Maggie Lysaght from the University of Cincinnati. They tackle the big question many nurse educators have been asking: “When will we get multiplayer in VR simulation?” Devin and Maggie discuss why “multiplayer” might not be the core solution nursing really needs, what realistic patient care looks like day to day (hint: it’s usually one nurse with multiple patients), and how immersive VR can truly change how future nurses are trained. Key Moments 0:00 – Introduction Devin Marble introduces himself from VRpatients, and Maggie greets viewers as a Nurse Practitioner. 0:02 – Meet Maggie Maggie explains her background: RN since 2008, NP since 2012, and an educator at the University of Cincinnati. 0:09 – Purpose of the Fireside Chat Devin frames the conversation around nursing and simulation, looking for Maggie’s perspective on traditional vs. immersive training. 0:25 – Background & Teaching Maggie shares her teaching role and how it differs from Devin’s paramedic teaching experience. 1:00 – Why Do We Still Use the Same Simulation Model? Devin explores the high cost and resource constraints of traditional manikins and the impact on group-based simulation. 3:12 – “When Are You Getting Multiplayer?” Devin reveals the most frequent question VRpatients hears, and Maggie offers insight on team-based care vs. day-to-day nursing reality. 5:03 – Real Clinical Scenarios They discuss codes, multi-provider involvement, and why a large group isn’t the norm outside of emergencies. 7:03 – The 60+ Year Legacy of Group Simulation Maggie and Devin question why educators still gather students around one manikin, pointing to historical resource limitations. 9:00 – Group Pre-Brief, Solo Sim, Group Debrief Devin introduces his vision for VR-based training: group discussions, individual immersions, and collaborative reflection. 10:24 – The Reality of One Nurse, One Patient Maggie underscores the importance of one-on-one simulation for developing critical thinking skills. 12:00 – Handling Multiple Patients Over Time Devin raises the idea of successive simulations for each patient scenario rather than “multiplayer” or large group sessions. 16:16 – Wrap-Up & Thanks Devin thanks Maggie for her time, jokingly offering her future medical rescue duties. They hint at making this a recurring series.
