“…However, the implementation and explanation of design requirements are lacking, and the reporting offers no substantial ground for definitive conclusions. In our review, many studies that created an intervention or application did not describe a design rationale, whereas previous research has shown that this is essential in determining the thoughts and foundations of an intervention to enable researchers to build on it [74,84,85]. This systematic review leverages the existing literature to show the potential of design approaches to empower service users and people with lived experience as resourceful actors in innovation processes in mental health care.…”

Background Mental health care faces challenges that not only necessitate innovation but also require the involvement of service users and people with lived experience in developing and evaluating mental health care services. As the development of digital interventions is becoming more prevalent, design approaches are increasingly finding their way into mental health. There is evidence that these approaches can successfully integrate user experience into mental health services. However, there is no clear overview of the studies conducted and the lessons learned concerning the involvement of service users and people with lived experience. Objective In this systematic review, we aimed to provide an overview of the involvement of service users and people with lived experience in mental health care services through design approaches and to synthesize the advantages of design approaches in mental health care. Methods The following 5 databases were searched for relevant abstracts: PsycINFO, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase. In addition, 2 health design journal archives, Design for Health and The Journal of Health Design, were searched. To categorize the results, we collected the reported added value from the included articles and conducted a thematic synthesis in which the themes were developed from the retrieved data. The themes were discussed, revised, and checked until saturation was achieved. Results We included and categorized 33 papers. Most studies involved service users, primarily adults, and used various design approaches. Most of these studies aimed to design or evaluate digital interventions. Service users and people with lived experience were involved in different roles but never as decision makers. Studies that used co-design approaches exhibited the highest levels of involvement. Various added values were reported, including tailoring and testing interventions and digital interventions, improving engagement and collaboration, gathering the needs of stakeholders, and empowering participants as resourceful actors. The challenges reported were maintaining participants’ continued participation throughout the study, managing the iterative nature of design, providing a safe space, balancing insights from design and medical science, and navigating design processes in medical environments. Conclusions This systematic review provides an overview of the studies that used design approaches to involve service users and people with lived experience in mental health care innovation. Design approaches have advantages in mental health care innovation, offering added value and having manageable challenges. Future studies using design approaches in mental health care should involve participants as partners and decision makers and report on collaboration in a systematic and clear manner.

“…Virtual reality technology is widely applied in the construction of medical training platforms, providing immersive three-dimensional training environments [1] . Existing research has shown that utilizing virtual scenario training can effectively enhance the nursing skills of learners [2] . However, the specific design of virtual environments and human-computer interaction experiences for geriatric nursing professionals requires further exploration.…”

To address the current issues of limited practical training conditions, narrow scenarios, and a disconnect between theory and practice in elderly care professional training, this article proposes the design of an immersive virtual simulation system for elderly care training. This system adopts a three-tier architecture and utilizes virtual reality technology to create diverse nursing scenarios and interactive modes. Typical scenarios in the system include hospital wards and home care, offering mixed interactions between physical and virtual objects. The system achieves high-fidelity environmental rendering and interaction simulation using the Unity 3D engine, creating an immersive experience through devices such as head-mounted displays. Compared to traditional teaching methods, this virtual simulation system provides realistic scenarios and natural interactions, enhancing students' interest and training effectiveness. By effectively leveraging virtual reality technology, this system establishes an immersive training environment for elderly care, seamlessly integrating theoretical instruction with clinical practice, thus significantly enhancing the quality of elderly care professional training.
