Virtual reality in allied health education
Turn classroom knowledge into clinical readiness.
OMS partners with allied health programs to bridge the gap between classroom instruction and real-world practice.
Our immersive simulations, both on screen and VR headsets, build communication and critical skills through realistic patient encounters that can be delivered anywhere, anytime, and at scale.
Benefits
Stay ahead of the demands of allied health education.
OMS extends the reach of traditional simulation for allied health learners. VR in allied health education provides immersive, flexible, and data-driven clinical experiences that enhance and unify existing teaching models. The result: scalable, equitable, and consistent preparation across every site and specialty.
Deliver repeatable clinical experiences
Reduce variability and reinforce role-specific readiness with consistent, evidence-based clinical practice experiences across cohorts.
Align experience with competency standards
Align simulation to allied health competency expectations and accreditation requirements through structured learning and measurable outcomes.
Build communication skills for real workflows
Strengthen learner communication with patients, caregivers, and care teams through realistic interactions that reflect everyday clinical workflows.
Increase readiness and confidence
Build applied clinical thinking and confidence that prepares learners to perform effectively in real care environments.
Share key outcomes data
Leverage in-depth performance insights to demonstrate outcomes for accreditation, reporting, and program evaluation.
Expand access without extending workload
Support consistent delivery across learners and sites without adding to faculty workload.
Driving measurable readiness.
OMS gives you real-time data to monitor skills and progress with objective insights that support coaching, improvement planning, and competency validation. Our performance dashboards align with key standards, so you can identify gaps, prove your students are ready for practice, and demonstrate compliance during program accreditation reviews.

Immersive VR simulations for allied health education
OMS scenarios place allied health students in authentic patient care situations that reflect real interdisciplinary practice. Learners assess, communicate, intervene, and see the results of their actions across a range of settings and roles.
Allied Health Foundations
Support early allied health education with realistic clinical scenarios that reinforce foundational communication and patient assessment skills. Learners build confidence, applying core knowledge while developing safe, professional, patient-centred practice habits.
Reinforces core clinical skills and professional behaviours
Supports patient communication and information gathering
Builds confidence in clinical decision-making and judgement
Encourages safe, ethical, and person-centred practice
Connects classroom learning to real-world clinical application
Clinical Assessment & Patient Communication
Enable allied health learners to practice structured assessment and patient interaction in a safe, repeatable environment. Scenarios strengthen observation, interpretation, and communication skills essential across allied health roles.
Develops patient interviewing and observation skills
Supports interpretation of clinical signs and symptoms
Reinforces documentation and information sharing
Enhances communication with patients, families, and care teams
Builds confidence managing diverse patient presentations
Illness Care & Functional Impact
Help learners understand how illness affects patients, including function, recovery, and quality of life. Learners practice adapting care approaches based on patient needs, goals, and evolving clinical status.
Explores the functional impact of acute and chronic conditions
Supports clinical reasoning around patient needs and limitations
Reinforces documentation and information sharing
Encourages goal-oriented, outcomes-focused care
Applies condition-specific knowledge in realistic clinical contexts
Interprofessional Teamwork & Care Coordination
Strengthens clinical collaboration by placing allied health learners in realistic interprofessional care scenarios. Learners practice communication, role clarity, and coordination alongside medical, nursing, and healthcare colleagues.
Builds confidence communicating within multidisciplinary teams
Reinforces understanding of roles and scope of practice
Supports effective handover and information sharing
Enhances coordination across care settings
Encourages collaborative, patient-centred care delivery
Safety, Quality & Risk Awareness
Enable realistic practice in recognizing risk, responding to change, and contributing to safe, high-quality care. Our simulations work across clinical environments to reinforce vigilance, escalation, and accountability.
Reinforces patient safety and risk mitigation procedures
Supports early identification of deterioration or other concerns
Encourages appropriate escalation and reporting
Strengthens quality and consistency in care delivery
Builds awareness of safety culture and professional responsibility
