Event ~ 9th NHS Virtual Wards Summit: Embracing Hospitals at Home

Current Landscape - All Convenzis Events Provide 8 CPD Points Per Delegate

Virtual wards have evolved into a core component of the NHS’s future-facing care model. Backed by the 2025 NHS 10-Year Plan, virtual wards are no longer a pilot initiative—they are becoming the default model for proactive, home-based care.

With a nationally procured platform, integrated digital tools, and strong operational standards, virtual wards are enabling patients to be safely monitored and treated at home, reducing unnecessary hospital admissions and easing bed pressures.

This shift is especially critical in light of rising demand from an ageing population and constrained inpatient capacity. Virtual wards now offer not just convenience, but data-driven, AI-enhanced care that supports better outcomes and efficiency across the NHS.

Importance and Timeliness of the Event:

The 2025 Virtual Wards Conference arrives at a pivotal moment. As NHS England embeds virtual wards into its long-term operational and funding models, there is an urgent need to share best practices, address implementation challenges, and align strategies across systems.

With new financial incentives, AI-enabled platforms, and enhanced clinical governance in place, this event will bring together senior clinicians, ICB leaders, digital health innovators, and policymakers to shape the next decade of virtual care. The time to optimise this transformative care model is now—and this conference is where that work begins.

Key Content Streams:

Integrated Pathways: Aligning Virtual Wards with Urgent and Emergency Care (UEC) services to streamline patient flow and reduce avoidable admissions.
