Description

Virtual wards allow patients to get the care they need at home safely and conveniently, rather than being in hospital. The NHS is increasingly introducing virtual wards to support people at the place they call home, including care homes.
In a virtual ward, support can include remote monitoring using apps, technology platforms, wearables and medical devices such as pulse oximeters. Support may also involve face-to-face care from multi-disciplinary teams based in the community.
This direct award via the NHS HSSF framework extends the virtual ward care that has been delivered during COVID-19 to a wider cohort of patients.
It will collect relevant information about the activity that is taking place.
This direct award via the HSSF framework provides analytical support to the virtual wards programme during ort for 2023-24 to develop, build on and deliver these requirements as the programme continues to grow.
