VR SOP Training for Operating Theatre Turnover

Safer, faster theatre resets between cases

Theatre turnover is time-sensitive and high risk: infection control, equipment checks and documentation must be consistent. Spark builds bespoke VR training that mirrors your theatre layouts, cleaning sequence, waste segregation, equipment positioning and safety checks—so staff learn the routine clearly.

Common challenges

  • Infection control: correct wipe-down order and touch point focus.
  • Equipment readiness: checks for anaesthetic machines, suction and monitors.
  • Sharps & waste: safe segregation and incident response.
  • Documentation: checklists, handover notes and escalation rules.

Our bespoke build approach

  1. Capture SOPs: local policies, checklists and room layouts.
  2. Create scenarios: standard turnover, contamination incident and urgent case prep.
  3. Coach in VR: prompts matched to your signs and forms.
  4. Assess: completion accuracy, timing and quality gaps.

Benefits

  • More consistent infection control.
  • Faster, safer theatre readiness.
  • Audit-ready training evidence for hospitals.
