New report from DORSET HEALTHCARE NHS

Rapid scale-up of virtual consultations

Covid-19 response and rapid transformation

Abstract
​After procuring the Attend Anywhere digital platform in 2019 to enable virtual consultations, Dorset HealthCare has rapidly increased uptake of this offer during the Covid-19 pandemic, increasing both the number of waiting rooms (from 10 to >40) and the use of virtual consultations (from an average of 82 per week to 866). This has meant services have been able to continue to deliver high quality care to patients, reducing in-person contact and risk for service users and staff.

​The integration of Attend Anywhere into our range of clinical and communication offers has proved a tremendous success. Although the rapid scale-up of virtual consultations was driven by necessity due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it has enabled clinical pathways to progress to a modern platform which has proven popular with clinicians and people alike."
