The Virtual Care Network is now live in the NICU of Texas Children’s North Austin Campus! “Austin was very, very excited to adopt this,” said Tanya Hilliard, Assistant Clinical Director of Virtual Care Network. “Now that Angel Eye is up and running, virtual nurses are able to take off that burden as well, consenting the parents and allowing them to see their babies virtually while in the NICU.” The hybrid model adds a virtual nurse to the clinical care team from a remote hub, and through these virtual interactions, parents and caregivers can access support resources without interruption of bedside care. This innovation is a creative solution to improving patient care and highlights a few of the core tenets of Texas Children’s: collaboration, patient advocacy and adaptability.
