Delivering the Healthcare of the Future, Today
Building a Stronger Nursing Workforce with Virtual Wards
We are delighted to invite you to access this on-demand webinar, ‘Delivering the Healthcare of the Future, Today: Building a Stronger Nursing Workforce with Virtual Wards' which took place on 7th July 2022 @ 12 PM (BST).
Technology-enabled virtual wards have gained significant traction in the last two years. And for good reasons: they deliver excellent outcomes, control costs, and enable excellent satisfaction among patients and clinicians.
For the nurses delivering this care, the experiences provide opportunities for high-touch patient interaction, at a pace that allows for connection and compassion. In this webinar, a panel of nurses from the virtual wards at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital and Wrightington, Wigan, and Leigh Teaching Hospital will share their experiences with this care model, lessons learned for program success, and their advice to other leaders and nurses building virtual wards.
