Opis: The research paper examines the use of virtual reality (VR) as an innovative therapeutic tool to reduce school-related anxiety for children in primary school. It focuses on simulating stressful school scenarios (such as entering a new school, finding a classroom, or speaking in public) in a safe and controlled environment under the guidance of a therapist. The study aims to evaluate how effective VR is in lowering anxiety levels and to explore therapists' views towards the use of virtual reality as a therapeutic tool. Findings indicate that VR therapy can significantly reduce anxiety while also enhancing social skills and boosting self-confidence among pupils. Although therapists see VR as a valuable tool, they highlight the need for clearer guidelines to effectively incorporate it into therapeutic practices. The research highlights the importance of tailoring VR content to the needs of children with various learning and social challenges. Despite these challenges, VR represents an important step forward in therapeutic approaches, as it allows students to gradually adapt to stressful situations without pressure from the real world.

Opis: Objectives: This study evaluates the effectiveness of an innovative, integrated healthcare approach based on the “Long-term Care (LTC) in the Community” pilot project, aimed at testing solutions for the new LTC Act and associated regulations in Slovenia. It is based on a small sample, which can be financed from European project funds. This methodology is crucial for the subordinate legislation derived from the LTC Act. Methods: We selected beneficiaries who decided to receive integrated services in their home environment in rural areas. Among 132 beneficiaries who received various care services at home, 75 beneficiaries received integrated services to maintain independence, while a control group of 57 persons did not receive these despite eligibility. The hypothesis that the new reactivation and other services to strengthen and maintain independence facilitate a transition to a lower category of LTC within the system of different states of abilities and that new approaches with integrated home care are much moresuccessful were tested using the Z + 4 test. Results: Seven out of eight users’ abilities were improved by an inventive approach to LTC at home, including reactivation activities, with p < 0.025. The probability that the new methods will outperform the old ones for an arbitrarily selected senior eligible for LTC exceeded 0.89. Thus, we used quantitative methods to confirm the reasonableness of the decisions included in the LTC Act and will help to estimate savings in the health fund. Conclusions: These positive results promote the implementation of integrated care strategies, norms, and standards, which will be further articulated in subordinate legislation.
