Virtual Ward
3 weeks ago
Our General Acute Medicine and Frailty Virtual Ward is a new and innovative Service, that has an agreed admission criteria and works in partnership with supporting care services to deliver acute care in the patient’s own home. The aim of a virtual ward is to reduce length of acute hospital stay and/or avoid hospital admission; this leads to quicker recovery and reduces disruption to patients’, and their carers’ lives. This means we can proactively manage people living with frailty at home, and for those that have a sub-acute episode we can improve a patient’s experience and outcomes. In addition, this means we have more space in our hospitals for acutely unwell patients and reduces the pressure on urgent care.
The virtual ward NHS England » Virtual wards provides a clinical assessment, treatment, monitoring and review to people in their own home who become unwell and would normally be admitted to hospital or are already under the care of one of the following - Royal Stoke University Hospital, County Hospital at Stafford, New Cross Hospital at Wolverhampton, or Queen’s Hospital in Burton, and whose needs can be safely managed at home. The virtual ward will work alongside and communicate with existing providers across our Health and Social Care System.
