NEW: We are pleased to offer the option to attend this masterclass as a virtual online course; find out more about our Virtual Training.
This virtual masterclass will focus on the practicalities of setting up and running Virtual Clinics. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced health care delivery to transition to remote care. Moving forward all services will need to work in a different way that effectively supports patients, particularly those in high risk categories to receive effective and safe care whilst staying out of healthcare settings.
Before COVID-19 Virtual clinics were increasingly being used in healthcare to reduce outpatient appointments, reduce DNA rates, save money and ensure the patients that do need to be seen face to face by a consultant have enough dedicated time. COVID-19 has forced a step change in virtual clinics development, a large number of appointments can be replaced by virtual clinics, for decision making, consultation and outcome analysis.
The masterclass will include practical information covering
• virtual care systems
• clinical and process pathways
• security and governance
• risks and mitigation
• video-conferencing
• asynchronous principals and practice
