Although Reverie VR is a single-user experience, it can serve as a catalyst for social interaction. Supervised sessions create shared emotional experiences that become conversation starters, fostering deeper connections with family and care staff.

The Importance of Social Interaction

Meaningful interactions are essential for emotional health. Discussing the VR experience can help reduce feelings of isolation.

How Reverie VR Encourages Social Interaction:

• Guided Reminiscence: Carers facilitate post-session discussions that help the resident express emotions triggered by the visuals.

• Conversation Starters: Themes from the session provide natural topics for discussion.

• Emotional Reflection: Guided reflection helps the resident process and share their feelings with family members.

Scientific Evidence:

1. Journal of Gerontological Nursing (2021): Guided reminiscence improves social interaction (journals.healio.com).

2. Ageing & Society (2022): Interactive technology fosters social connections (cambridge.org).

3. Frontiers in Psychology (2021): Emotional reflection reduces isolation and encourages communication (frontiersin.org).

Implementing Reverie VR:

• Family Carers: Encourage open discussions about session content.

• Home Carers: Use guided reflection to integrate VR insights into social activities.
