DECIDE contributes to Parliamentary Report on Virtual Wards
Professor Sara Shaw, Dr Sonja Marjanovic, Ms Breid O'Brien, Associate Professor Chrysanthi Papoutsi and Dr Frances Wu have contributed to a newly published Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology (POST) report on "Virtual Wards and Hospital at Home." The report examines how hospital-level care can be provided to patients in their homes using technology and multidisciplinary teams. The contributions drew on findings from the DECIDE project's evaluations of technology-enabled remote monitoring in health and social care.
"This report comes at a critical time as virtual wards expand across the NHS," said Professor Shaw. "Our research highlights both the potential benefits for patients and the implementation challenges that need addressing to ensure these services reduce rather than widen health inequities.”
