Services
The Virtual Ward
A service enabling patients to be transferred home sooner than anticipated from an NHS hospital. All patients are nursed and cared for by our front line team of healthcare professionals. This service is to assist NHS trusts to facilitate patient flow through the hospital environment. I-NURSE are able to supply healthcare capacity in the virtual ward and thus assist directly with the day to day patient flow through the secondary care hospital setting. Our team of nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, therapy assistants and phlebotomists effectively manage and treat patients away from the hospital setting and in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. This model of home care is proven to aide healing and reduce patient stress, along with valuable cost savings to the NHS.
Intravenous therapies
Being at home should never be a barrier to accessing high quality clinical care. Our trained nurses are able to visits patients in the comfort and safety of their own homes to administer a number of intravenous infusions ranging from antibiotics to blood transfusions. The beauty of this service is how personal it its, with one to one nursing, thus reducing stress for the patient and the patients family.

Wound Care
Here at I-NURSE we are passionate about providing the best clinical evidence-based practice in leg ulcer management and treatments.
We pride ourselves on our excellent healing rates and very low re-occurrence rates in our venous leg ulcer patients. We teach patients how to manage their skin care and wear the correct hosiery to aid venous return. We have access to our own specialist nurses who work as a team in achieving really positive outcomes for even the most complex mixed etiology patients.
The approach we use is the 'patient nurse partnership' model, a truly patient-centred approach to care. Health education and health promotion are key elements to our working model of nursing. Many of our patients are offered the option of going onto a true self-care model of treatment (6 weeks self management in a compression hosiery kit) once they start responding to treatment and this is overseen by one of the clinical lead nurses. We look at the whole patient and not just the hole in the patient, holistic assessment and ongoing social prescribing all add quality to our service.
All patients have access to a nurse on call 24 hours 7 days a week.
Flu vaccinations
Influenza is a real risk to the continuity of any company. With seasonal influenza along with coughs colds and injuries at work costing the UK economy over £14.1 billion a year there is good reason to protect your workforce. Could your company survive a flu outbreak?
We are able to provide a workplace vaccination service, where a registered nurse will come to your office to vaccinate staff. Our service is safe, convenient and cost-effective. Why not contact us today for a quotation and information. Email us at enquiries@inurse.org.uk
