LUCIDA VR is designed for use in healthcare and care facilities and, when appropriate, at home. The setting is chosen based on clinical conditions, ability to use the system, available support and goals. The technical possibility of using a standalone headset does not mean that the person is suitable to use it without assistance.
In care settings
The presence of trained staff allows familiarisation to be supported, understanding of instructions to be checked and interaction to be observed. The professional can distinguish task difficulties, usage problems and fatigue, and adapt the approach.
Session scheduling must take account of other care activities and the times when the person is most receptive. Positioning, comfort and device management form part of service organisation.
At home
Home use is envisaged within a supervised pathway. Before starting, the professional assesses the environment, ability to understand instructions and need for a caregiver. The session takes place seated, in a stable position and with agreed methods of assistance.
The caregiver can help with preparation and positioning, observe any discomfort and support the end of the session. Support methods must avoid answering on the person's behalf, so that the data retain interpretable meaning.
Pausing and stopping
Eye strain, nausea, dizziness, disorientation or increased agitation require the session to be stopped and reassessed. Programme regularity does not justify continuing a poorly tolerated experience. Resuming and any adaptations are agreed with the professional.
The value of monitoring
The portal connection is designed to support continuity of information between sessions and clinical assessments. Feedback from the person and family remains essential: response times and scores alone do not describe wellbeing, everyday functioning or the burden of care.
