Using Video-Conferencing During Schwartz Rounds at St Christopher’s Hospice Andrew Goodhead, Victor Pace, Kathy Burn & Matt Loveridge
St Christopher’s Sydenham Larger site Inpatient, outpatient, community & day care Approxiamtely 2/3 staff based here Education Department St Christopher’s Bromley Became part of St Christopher's Group in 2008 Outpatient, Community & day care services Approximately 10 miles / 40 minute drive from Sydenham site. Large volunteer population at both sites.
Regular rounds for the last 2 years Aim from the start to make them available to staff and volunteers across both sites Quickly became clear that very few staff from the Bromley site were attending rounds being held at Sydenham (& vice versa) Number of different ideas were tried over subsequent rounds but nothing guaranteed a good representation of staff from both sites. Time constraints and travel issues most cited reason for not attending
Last resort – initial sceptism Video-Conferencing Equipment already in place We have now run 4 rounds using videoconferencing facilities 3 panel based at Sydenham, 1 panel at Bromley
