Attend Anywhere has been the most useful and we got it up and running within 6 days to hold virtual consultations with patients. It was really important for us to keep our patients as safe as we could. On a recent visit to the Isle Of Wight, Her Royal Highness, Princess Anne, was given a demonstration of Attend Anywhere, as well as meeting volunteers via video link.

Patients feel that virtual clinics save them time and lowers stress and Attend Anywhere is making sure that patient care continues from the safest environment possible - their own homes. Cystic fibrosis clinical nurse specialist Laura Barlow: When one of my patients logged on to Attend Anywhere recently, it became apparent that they needed to be admitted urgently. This was clear to me because I was able to see them. We were able to arrange for the patient to be reviewed by a consultant, brought into hospital and begin treatment and this may have played a role in saving the patient's life.

Interpreters can also join the calls if necessary.  |
