How to take virtual wards to the next level
Watch again: Devaneson Robert, Service Manager at a virtual ward in north west London, joined Elliott Engers, CEO of Infinity Health, and Dr Jo Garland, Clinical Director of Infinity Health, to discuss how to take virtual wards beyond remote monitoring into truly wraparound services that coordinate care around the patient and bring multidisciplinary teams together, whether co-located or remote.
On a virtual ward at London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust, Infinity has significantly improved the team’s working practices, increasing their capacity to see patients by over 50%.

More about the solution
Infinity Health’s virtual wards solution allows virtual wards to scale so patients can be cared for safely at home instead of in hospital, enabling earlier discharge and preventing admissions.
By integrating with community and primary care providers and unifying disparate digital systems, care can be coordinated seamlessly regardless of location or organisation.
Health professionals can connect and collaborate around care via a shared patient list, and ensure patients are tracked and monitored throughout their journey. The platform integrates with remote monitoring devices and data feeds and patients can submit questionnaires about their progress and symptoms for real-time feedback.
Integration with communications platforms allows clinicians to communicate easily with patients via SMS, email, and secure video, in support of shared decision making.
