Inhealthcare hosted a roundtable discussion to share insights into how clinicians are responding to the challenge from NHS England to create 40 to 50 virtual ward beds per 100,000 of the population by December 2023.
In this White Paper, we summarise the debate around how hospitals can accommodate growing demand and illustrate how NHS organisations can hit the virtual ward target and deliver safe and sustainable hospital care at home to patients under the watchful eye of consultants who can determine the appropriate level of oversight according to need.
