    The shift to home care for chronic illness management increases the burden on informal caregivers, who often lack structured training.

  • 2

    Simulation-based training has shown significant benefits for informal caregivers, improving self-efficacy and perceived security in caregiving tasks.

  • 3

    Immersive technologies like VR and 360° video enhance caregiver training by promoting active learning and contextual realism.

  • 4

    Immersive 360° video is particularly suitable for home care, as it is accessible and allows caregivers to learn at their own pace.

  • 5

    There is a need for more robust studies addressing the comprehensive needs of informal caregivers throughout the care trajectory.
