Could virtual hospitals replace hospital visits?
What if your next hospital appointment happened from your kitchen table?
In Part 2 of Transform Gov, Professor Derek O'Keeffe explains how Ireland is using digital technology to rethink healthcare delivery — from remote islands to nursing homes, prisons and beyond.
You'll hear how:
*Patients can be monitored safely at home.
*Chronic diseases can be managed before emergencies happen.
*Virtual hospitals are reducing unnecessary admissions.
*AI and robotics could become everyday healthcare tools.
This isn't science fiction.
It's already happening.
