NURSES are to use “virtual patients” to learn a better bedside manner, it was revealed last night.

An island just for the ward angels has been set up on the popular online game Second Life.

It will let students interact with virtual patients before they get access to the real thing.

Glasgow Caledonian University has created the island and students will access it next year.

Jacqueline McCallum, senior lecturer in clinical simulation, said: “We are using it to help students with decision-making.”
