Summary
How this service works
Telecare supports hospitals with after-hours virtual inpatient admissions and ward rounds when an admitting physician is unavailable.
Clinicians work with nursing teams via telehealth to review patient information, complete admissions and determine the right level of care.
Hospitals can also request secondary inpatient consultations—virtual patient reviews or phone advice for medical officers and nursing staff.
