How to use Virtual Care for Long-term Condition Management

Learn about using virtual care for long-term condition management from our guest speakers from Wrightington, Wigan & Leigh NHS Foundation Trust (WWL), who have successfully led the implementation of virtual care within their trust. WWL’s virtual ward model is unique and focuses on a step-up and step-down pathway, providing care for various long-term conditions. The virtual ward operates 7 days a week, monitoring patients from early morning to late at night with consultant oversight. During the webinar, the speakers share how they have overcome challenges, such as gaining confidence among GPs to make virtual care a primary protocol and addressing digital exclusion for elderly patients.
