Virtual Reality for Seniors (VRS)

The Virtual Reality for Seniors (VRS) Program at Yee Hong provides seniors with a platform to learn to use virtual reality (VR) technology. VRS participants engage in a variety of VR games and experiences that promote cognitive and sensory motor exercise. Participants’ shared experiences of learning to use VR technology help foster social interaction and create new connections between participants. Virtual reality programming is available for Yee Hong’s long-term care residents and participants of our Adult Day Programs, Congregate Dining, and Active Senior Programs as well.
