Abstract

One of the stages in the process of implementing clinical clerkship is the activity of visiting hospital facilities. The medical students are divided into groups and visit various clinical facilities that are available. The process of physical visits requires time and expenses. Additionally, the crowded condition of the clinic facilities often poses a problem when trying to find a suitable visiting time. For this reason, a new method is needed that is efficient and cost-effective, which can facilitate this activity. The purpose of this research is to design a virtual reality-based virtual tour of a hospital. With this technology, students will still be able to experience virtual tours of healthcare facilities that are comparable to or even as good as physical tours. Since it is virtual-based, there will be no issue with visit time as it can be done anytime. This research will utilize the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) development model. There are a total of six steps in its development, namely Concept, Design, Material Collection, Assembly, Testing, and Distribution. The hospital's virtual reality tour facility has been constructed effectively after all the stages of the MDLC approach have been completed. The test results indicate that all functional requirements have successfully met expectations. Users can utilize virtual reality headsets for a more immersive experience. The concept of a virtual tour of hospital facilities based on virtual reality has been successfully developed. The presence of virtual tours will facilitate medical education students during their clinical clerkship to observe the available facilities without being limited by time.
