Can a trust film its own wards for scenarios?
A locally filmed scenario beats a purchased library on accuracy rather than fidelity. A scenario that teaches the wrong escalation route teaches the wrong thing.
Why film your own ward?
Because escalation protocols, equipment, layouts, documentation and local wording all differ between trusts. A scenario built in your own space teaches your pathway, and your educators can update it when a protocol changes.
What does a typical build look like?
A typical build follows five steps from capture to deployment.
- Capture: film a ward, resus bay or community setting in 360°, or use existing photos and renders
- Layer: place hotspots on the observation chart, the monitor, the drug cupboard and the colleague to escalate to
- Branch: build the decision points, including what happens after a late or wrong escalation
- Score: mark the decisions that are genuinely being assessed, not everything
- Deploy: publish once to a laptop, tablet, headset or projection wall
Can someone film it for us?
Yes. Node XR Studio films hospital wards, theatres, paediatric units, primary care settings and sim suites, with AI face-blur as a safeguard. At Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital, the Studio team edited over 110 360° images into a single orientation library that every new starter now completes before their first shift.
