East of England Clinical Senate Proactive Project – Virtual Wards Outcomes Paper (Dec 2023)

This report and checklist were developed by the East of England Clinical Senate in response to an approach by the Regional Virtual Ward team to support their work.  Dr Martin Hawkings, Head of System Improvement – Virtual Wards, East of England Clinical Quality Directorate, NHS England, gave a presentation to EoE Clinical Senate Council in June 2022.  Subsequently, a Virtual Wards Task and Finish Group (a sub-group of the Clinical Senate Council) was established and brought together opinion from clinicians and experts by experience to develop a template of domains for consideration when Senates undertake an independent Clinical Senate Review which has a Virtual Ward element.
