FAQs
What is Virtual Nursing?
In Virtual Nursing, virtual nurses interact with patients directly via a screen in the patient’s room. Virtual nurses perform top-of-license practices and also support workflows such as admission, rounding, discharge and nurse documentation in accordance with your facility’s protocols and standards.
How does Virtual Nursing work?
Virtual nurses work from a virtual command center supporting a curated task list, which can allow bedside clinical team more time to focus on hands-on patient care.
How can Virtual Nursing help a hospital attract and retain nurses?
Virtual Nursing can help a hospital attract and retain nurses by allowing flexibility in the type of work nurses perform, whether virtual, hands-on, or a combination. Some hospitals have team members who work only as virtual care providers, leveraging an experienced workforce that has retired, or experienced senior nurses who want to move away from bedside acute care but still practice and mentor. Virtual Nursing is a great avenue for experienced nurses to provide mentorship to new practice nurses throughout a facility or health system.
Can Virtual Monitoring, Ambient Monitoring and Virtual Nursing happen concurrently in one patient room?
Yes. Because some patients may need multiple layers of care, Virtual Nursing sessions can be run simultaneously with Virtual Monitoring and/or Ambient Monitoring using a single ambient monitoring sensor.
