Teaching non-technical skills (NTS) is an important part of the undergraduate medical curriculum. Resource intensive high-fidelity simulation has an established role in this. We developed an innovative series of immersive virtual reality simulation videos for medical students. We found they demonstrated efficacy in teaching NTS and after viewing students felt better prepared for clinical placements.
