From the pilot

What nurses told us

Nurse testers are shaping MiRA's design and clinical content. Here's what we heard and what we're building next.

  • Workload

    “Incredible potential to reduce workload.”

    Nurse testers see real time savings in bedside documentation.

  • Design

    More intuitive, more visual

    The interface keeps getting easier to use. Next up: icons, visual cues, and color coding for faster reading at a glance.

  • Clinical realism

    Scenarios that feel like a real shift

    Nurses asked for context before entering the room. We're adding handoff reports, orders, meds, and vitals to every scenario.

  • Patient voice

    Patients that talk back like patients

    Richer two-way conversations, so nurses can ask follow-ups and assess the way they would at the bedside.

  • Workflow

    Built around real workflows

    Nurse-shared med-surg workflows and U.S. lab units are shaping how MiRA fits into the day.

Student home screen showing an assigned patient panel with completion progress

A simulated patient scenario that evolves day by day.

Students practice recognizing changes, reassessing, and responding as the scenario evolves.

  1. DAY 1
    Recognition

    Spot early warning signs and act.

  2. DAY 3
    Reassessing treatment response

    Fever persists after 48 hours, prompting reassessment.

  3. DAY 6
    Discharge readiness

    Teach-back, discharge planning & care transition.

Students talk. The patient responds. Faculty see how the encounter unfolded.

Conversation

Patient · Margaret Chen“It's a lot worse when I try to sit up. Maybe a seven.”
Student“I’m going to take a look at your incision and see what may be causing the pain.”
Patient · Margaret Chen“Okay. It feels warm around the edge, too.”

What faculty see

Pain level7 / 10
Reported symptomWarmth at incision
Clinical concernPossible infection
MiRA records whether the student followed up on the reported change at the incision.

Assign, track and review performance in one dashboard.

Clinical Judgment

Aligned with the Next Generation NCLEX® framework, like recognizing cues and deciding when to escalate, with live AI patients.

AACN Essentials

Scenarios can be designed around relevant AACN Essentials domains, including Person-Centered Care, Quality and Safety, and Interprofessional Partnerships.

INACSL Standards

Encounters are designed with the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice™ in mind, including defined objectives, in-scenario guidance, and structured debriefing.

Student Privacy

MiRA is designed to support FERPA-aligned handling of student data, with access and data governance considered throughout the AI pipeline.
