1. Quality Measures (QMs)

Reduces pain: VR distraction techniques can lower residents’ perceived pain during procedures and therapy.
-
Improves mood: Regular VR sessions can reduce depressive symptoms and social withdrawal.
-
Decreases antipsychotic use: VR offers a meaningful, non-drug behavioral intervention—supporting psychotropic medication reduction efforts.
-
Enhances mobility and ADLs: VR rehab-focused apps (e.g., hand tracking, simulated ADL tasks) can support functional improvements and therapy goals.
-
Increases therapy participation: More engaged residents are more likely to show measurable improvement, which feeds into functional QMs.

Supports activity & therapy staff: VR reduces the pressure on staff to constantly come up with new engagement tools—saving time and energy.
