Beyond the bedside: Exploring the usage of wearables, remote monitoring, and virtual wards in a global context

29 Mar 2025

As technology advances and pressure on workforce and bed space intensifies, more emphasis is being placed on the use of remote monitoring technology to fill the gap. But do these new virtual wards offer a more efficient and patient centred approach, or do they present a risk to patient safety and an added burden on carers and family members?

Join us for an insightful panel discussion where our speakers will use examples from  India, Europe and Vietnam to delve into the advantages and limitations of these approaches, analysing their impact on healthcare efficiency, workforce dynamics, and patient well-being.
