NHS England and Health Education England elearning for healthcare have launched an elearning programme on virtual wards, to support doctors, nurses and allied professionals in the use of technology to provide safe, acute-level care to patients at home. This supports the NHS’s ambition in the 2022/23 NHS planning guidance to increase the number of virtual wards across England.
The elearning is for clinicians to gain an understanding of implementing and running a virtual ward enabled by technology. It should be used alongside organisations’ own local policies. Complete the programme on HEE’s elearning for healthcare platform in around 30 minutes.
If you have any questions about virtual wards more broadly, contact england.virtualward@nhs.net.
