Virtual Wards / Hospital at Home

The virtual smart hospital model provides a clinically safe, financially compelling, and patient-centered alternative to traditional inpatient care. It delivers acute-level treatment in patients’ homes, supported by digital monitoring and a multidisciplinary workforce.

By shifting appropriate patients to virtual care pathways, Trusts can:

  • Improve patient flow across acute pathways
  • Enable earlier discharge with clinical confidence
  • Reduce pressure on ED and assessment units
  • Increase available physical bed capacity

 

Where caring for a patient in hospital is circa £500 per per day, care through a smart hospital model is typically £300 less.

Reducing Patient Wait Times

A CQC-regulated provider with 98% patient satisfaction scores, our insourced and outsourced Clinical Services can help with reducing patient wait times while operating at or under the NHS Payment Scheme.

Whether you require extended patient capacity or additional resource for diagnostics and elective care, we can help to effectively manage patient pathways and improve patient outcomes.

Testimonials

  • ASD & ADHD Assessments Patient Feedback

    We were made to feel comfortable with support from beginning to end, from reception to exit. We were guided through what to expect and given time to be heard.

    The staff made my son and myself feel at ease and explained what was going to happen throughout the assessment. Very friendly and professional.

  • ASD & ADHD Assessments Patient Feedback

    The setting was perfect, with great access. The staff were very helpful at explaining things.

  • ASD & ADHD Assessment Patient Feedback

    Instead of feeling turned away like I have done for many years, I felt heard and understood. The team took their time to take in every little bit of information and gave me the answers I’d been waiting for a few years.

  • Deputy Divisional General Manager | Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

    Working with ID to set up on-site operating could not have gone more smoothly. They were responsive and engaging during the induction period and throughout. The clinical team they selected were proactive during induction and our own theatre teams reported that they were great to work with. The ENT Head of Service is pleased with the standard of clinical care provided and patient feedback has been great.

  • Patient, Ipswich & East Suffolk CCG

    Everyone was very helpful, friendly, professional and efficient.

  • Patient, Ipswich & East Suffolk CCG

  • International Mental Health Nurse

    Your whole team helped me a lot to make my dreams come true. I liked the way you communicated each and everything in detail and clarified all my doubts. It helped me to get my thoughts clear. I felt free to ask about my doubts because you gave such a warm experience… Thank you and the whole team… Thank you so much for everything!

  • International Mental Health Nurse

    Thanks a lot for your support… Without ID Medical, this (journey) would not have been so smooth. Very happy and 100% of the credit goes to the team.

  • International Mental Health Nurse

    ID Medical were very professional, fast and so considerate with my case. I have actually recommended a lot of my colleagues to use ID Medical. What I liked mostly was that you were constantly checking our well-being with my daughter whether we were ok throughout our journey till we were received at the airport and you could check if myself and my daughter were fine. I actually enjoyed your services. More of a family than agents.
