This book equips clinicians with the knowledge and skills they need to seamlessly integrate state-of-the-art VR technology into palliative care, addressing a wide range of patient needs, from pain management to wish fulfillment. The book’s special features include evidence-based VR interventions, practical implementation strategies, assessment tools, case studies, clinical tips, and suggested scripts for engagement, preparation, and assessment.

Grounded in robust research, theory, and practical expertise, this guidebook is a must-read for any researcher or professional who wants to enhance the quality of life for terminally ill patients and their families through VR technology, which offers a novel and transformative approach that sets it apart from traditional palliative care practices.
