Assessment

Primary outcomes

Design an experimental study where municipal public health nurses are randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group receives traditional training methods, while the intervention group undergoes VR-based training sessions focused on enhancing their self-efficacy, perception of severity, and likelihood of health crisis scenarios. Assessments are conducted before and after the intervention to measure any changes in the participants' perceptions. Statistical analysis is then performed to compare the outcomes between the two groups.

Key secondary outcomes

Conduct an experimental study where municipal public health nurses are randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group receives traditional training methods, while the intervention group undergoes VR-based training sessions focused on improving threat assessment and response evaluation skills. Assessments are conducted before and after the intervention to measure any changes in the participants' abilities to assess threats and evaluate responses. Statistical analysis is then performed to compare the outcomes between the two groups.
