Cisco has supplied its video technology to Nottingham University Hospital NHS Trust to improve the experiences of Cystic Fibrosis patients both during hospital stays and beyond.
Utilizing Cisco video technology, individual patient rooms are equipped with technology to enable video calling with family and friends and virtual participation in group classes.
The introduction of virtual sessions will enable patients to learn to manage the unique requirements of their condition, including hyper-metabolism that demands a diet in excess of 5,000 calories a day, and the need for very specific physiotherapy.
Terry Espiner, client director, Healthcare, Cisco UK & Ireland, said: “Connectivity and the ambition of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust are transforming the lives of people with Cystic Fibrosis.”
