A virtual reality intervention to improve formal caregivers' understanding of community-dwelling people with dementia: a pilot study
CONCLUSION: Ten in-service and in-home caregivers completed the VR training course. The course yielded a usability score of 74.06 points, indicating excellent usability. The content validity index (CVI) of the self-reported VR experience appraisal scale ranged from 0.8-1, scale-level CVI was 0.81, and reliability (Cronbach's α) was 0.929. The mean score of the overall scale was 4.67 ± 0.33. These findings suggest that the VR-based experiential training course enabled the home caregivers to deepen their understanding of the BPSD shown by community-dwelling patients and, therefore, to provide better care services.
