Come experience how virtual reality is transforming how Veterans receive and experience care.
VA is transforming the way Veterans receive and access their health care through virtual and augmented reality – collectively called extended reality, or XR. On September 26, from 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., the Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System and Office of Healthcare Innovation and Learning (OHIL) will host a Veteran eXpeRience (VXR). Veterans are invited to attend throughout the day to experience these immersive technologies. Guided by VA staff who are leaders in XR and immersive technology, Veterans will have the opportunity to use virtual reality (VR) headsets to test a wide variety of immersive experiences. The goal is that every Veteran will leave VXR having experienced that XR in healthcare is no about gaming; it’s about transforming how Veterans receive and experience care.
Attendees may arrive at any time between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
