Hospital to home
Virtual ward style check-ins
Scheduled remote and in-person check-ins after discharge.
From £50
This is not an emergency service. If someone has chest pain, stroke signs, severe breathing difficulty, heavy bleeding or collapse, call 999 or go to A&E. We work alongside the NHS, not instead of it.
About this service
A virtual ward style service is a rhythm of check-ins: phone or video most days, a visit if something drifts. It is not an NHS virtual ward bed. It is our way of keeping a close eye on someone we have accepted as safe enough to be at home.
Is this right for me?
- The first week after discharge
- Families who live away and want a clinician calling in
- Patients who are stable but not yet robust
Working alongside your NHS team

- Spotting deterioration
- Knowing when to visit in person
What happens during the visit
- A structured set of questions and observations

Pricing
From-price for a scheduled remote check-in. Combined visit packages are quoted individually.
After your visit
We stop when you are stable, or we convert to visits or NHS care if you are not.
Where we cover
Home visits across Lurgan, Craigavon, Portadown and Banbridge as core cover, with Lisburn, Armagh, Dungannon and Belfast arranged with a travel note. Call with a postcode and we will confirm. A family member can book if the patient consents to be seen.
FAQs
Is this an official NHS virtual ward?
No. NHS virtual wards are run by Health and Social Care Trusts. This is a private check-in service that can sit alongside your NHS care.
