Virtual Nurse visits
Introduction
- As part of TCP patient care services, we can now facilitate virtual visits for selected services.
- This allows greater flexibility for our patients, who can now get a visit anywhere.
Process
- TCP will notify the patient that they will receive a virtual nurse visit.
◦ This meeting will work over a Mobile browser so that a patient can join anywhere as it works on Android or Apple devices
◦ This works across our secure Office 365 tenant.

- The patient will receive an email with instructions on how to join the call once booking is confirmed.
◦ The user will need a copy of the prescription and the product they are due to take so the nurse can walk them through a visit.
◦ We advise the patient to set up the phone in an area where they feel comfortable and where they can use both hands

- The patient will also receive an email reminder 24hours before the appointment
◦ This will come from TCP_Virtual visits_No reply
◦ This is from our booking system, and not from a mailbox
◦ For any queries or cancellations, please get in touch with us via the main number.
- Once you join the call, you will be entered into a Lobby where the TCP nurse will admit you to begin the visit.

Why do you need to access my microphone or camera?
