Hertfordshire stroke patients receive faster care via FaceTime - Digital Health Innovative healthcare solutions are transforming stroke care in Hertfordshire! The introduction of a remote video assessment system using FaceTime at Watford General Hospital has significantly improved patient outcomes. In its first year, over 170 patients benefited, with a 17-minute reduction in treatment time for clot-busting medication.
