The Zaans Medical Center is the first hospital in the region that uses VR glasses. The glasses should make it easier for women to relax during delivery. It can also help with fear and even pain.
Nurse Eline Rijkenberg was committed to the arrival of the glasses to the hospital. She did a study for her education into the employability of the glasses in obstetrics. “As a result of my research, it was said:” We would like to implement this in our department, “says Eline proudly.
The glasses are now in use at the hospital for two weeks. In the meantime, some women have used it, with predominantly positive reactions.
