About

The main objective of this project is to raise awareness and equip parents of children with special needs with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent home accidents through virtual reality applications. Additionally, the project aims to provide parents with basic first aid training and transfer training to ensure appropriate responses in the event of an accident. It also seeks to assess the balance status of children with special needs and to identify potential fall-related risks that may lead to home accidents.

The primary research questions this project aims to address are as follows:

• What is the level of awareness among parents of children with special needs regarding home accidents?
• What is the effect of virtual reality simulation on parental awareness of home accident risks?
• How does first aid training influence parents' ability to respond to home accidents?
• What is the impact of transfer training on parents' preparedness for home accident scenarios?
• What are the balance and gait levels of children with special needs, and how might these relate to fall risk at home?
