Transcript of RPA virtual: A New Way of Caring - Sydney Local Health District
Miranda Shaw: I’d like to acknowledge the traditional owners of
the land we’re meeting on today and pay my respects of their elders past and
present.
On 3 February this
year, Sydney Local Health District introduced a new virtual hospital. Care is
delivered to a range of patient cohorts from a virtual care centre with a
multidisciplinary team.
Patients have access to
our care centre 24/7.
Freya Raffan: In seven months, we’ve delivered care to almost 4,000
patients. Overwhelmingly, the response from our patients is that they find the
virtual care accessible and our clinicians to be kind and caring.
