Virtual wards, also known as a ‘hospital at home’, allow patients to get hospital-level care at home. This speeds up recovery and freeing up hospital beds.
Patients are cared for by a multidisciplinary team who can provide a range of tests and treatments, using technology such as apps, wearables and other medical devices. This enables clinical staff to easily check in and monitor recovery.
NHS England’s Delivery plan for recovering urgent and emergency services commits the health service to ease the growing pressure on hospitals by scaling up the use of virtual wards.
The NHSE 2024/25 priorities and operational planning guidance states that as part of recovering the NHS’ core services, trusts should be improving access to virtual wards by ensuring utilisation is consistently above 80%, with a focus on frailty, acute respiratory infection, heart failure and CYP.
Current NHSE guidance is also driving the digitisation of virtual wards, with a view to soon have all virtual wards enhanced using technologies, such as for remote home monitoring.
