We’ve got a jam-packed show for you again this month, taking another look at Virtual Nursing, this time with news of the first exciting UK pilot that’s been putting futuristic consoles into ward rooms to bring virtual nurses to patient’s bedsides. And we re-open the case file on digital meds management, it’s got the potential to be one of the most impactful innovations for nursing, so we’ve launched some new research into the topic with HIMSS. Plus, we’re rounding up this month’s news from nurse tech including the new bio-hub building AI for protein discovery, NHS staff getting improved access to Microsoft Copilot and another £20m in Wayfinder funding becoming available for Trusts to develop patient portals and integration with the NHS app.
