Whilst on placement I had an outreach with Virtual Ward in community. I had opportunity to see the patients at home. I introduce myself and my role to the patients.

Virtual wards( also known as hospital home) allows patients to get the care they need at home safely and conveniently rather than being in hospital. They support people at the place they call home including care homes which includes either preventing avoidable admissions into hospi5alor supporting early discharge out of hospital.

Patients receive regular face to face visits from an Advanced Nurse practitioners and following clinical assessments, enchanced support is provided via remote monitoring of vital signs such as blood pressure, temperature, oxygen saturation, respiration.

While visiting the patients gained consent and took the vitals signs. Took history how the patients are doing and did documentation.
