Implementation guide

From the box to the first session.
No surprises.

What to prepare, who does what, and what the team should know before the first use. Made to be printed and pinned up.

ForCare homes and senior living

01Before you start

The list is deliberately short. RVer runs independently and does not require integration with existing hospital systems.

A power socket

To charge the headset between uses. No dedicated socket and no building work needed.

A minimum of space

A stable chair, with nothing within arm’s reach. A bedroom, a treatment room or a common room all work.

A person in charge

Someone on the team who takes responsibility for the headset and who we train. No technical knowledge required.

Internet: optional

Playback is 100% offline. The connection is only used for library updates, which can be run at any time.

04The routine, afterwards

Before each session

Check the charge, fit the face-pad cover, and set the volume with the user before the headset goes on.

Choosing content

The team picks the scenario. RVer can rank the library and explain why it suggested something, but it does not prescribe, assess or diagnose.

After the session

Clean the face pad and lenses, and put the headset back on charge. That is all.

Updates

Automatic, at any hour, never mid-session. At no extra cost.

05Safety and hygiene

Class I medical device (base product) · Infarmed CDM 94571546 · CE marking (MDR 2017/745). Follow these points every session.

Supervision

Always use the RVer system under supervision; never leave the user alone with the headset.

Hygiene between users

Clean the face pad and lenses between users. The kit includes a rubber pad cover: just wipe it with a cleaning wipe or damp cloth.

Signs of discomfort

Stop if dizziness, nausea or discomfort appears. Start with short sessions and calm videos, then increase duration and intensity gradually.

Space and position

Prefer seated use in a clear, stable space. For bedridden users, enable Lying-down mode.

Comfortable volume

Set a volume that is comfortable for the user before starting, on the headset itself.

Data and privacy

Playback runs 100% offline, no accounts. No clinical or personal patient data leaves the headset. Only per-device usage statistics are sent, identifying no one, to improve the app · GDPR-compliant.

Contraindications
