The RPA Virtual Hospital, known as rpavirtual, was launched in early 2020 as an alternative, sustainable solution to increasing demand for healthcare in Sydney.
rpavirtual is a new model of care which combines Sydney LHD’s integrated hospital and community care with the latest digital solutions. rpavirtual acts as a bridge between hospital specialist services and patient care in the community.
A purpose built 24/7 Virtual Care Centre was established on the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital campus and equipped with ‘Care Pods’ that include videoconferencing technology and the ability to remotely monitor patients with wearables.
