Andrew McMylor and Dr Seth Rankin (confirmed)
Assistant Director, Wandsworth CCG and Clinical Lead, Wandsworth Community Virtual Ward
“Wandsworth Community Virtual Ward – an approach to integrated care”
Wandsworth has evolved from the original 'Virtual Ward' model first piloted in Croydon in 2006 into an integrated health and social multidisciplinary team run through community services. Its aim is to identify and proactively case manage patients with chronic conditions at risk of a future hospital admission, and manage acute exacerbations in any patient in their own home through swift deployment of the clinical team including a GP, advanced nurse practitioner and community matron.
