Sutter’s three-story surgery center will open to the public Aug. 1 and will provide patients with state-of-the-art technology, including VR headsets.
Kids will get to choose an avatar that will help them with calming exercises before going into a procedure.
While the headsets have started as a pilot program, Sutter hopes to roll them out at additional facilities throughout the summer, according to the report.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
