Digital Skills Support
Along with Devon Communities Together, we're offering free Digital Skills courses to those with long term health conditions in rural and coastal areas of Devon.
This means we can provide one to one and group support to help increase your confidence with digital technology and ensure that learners can carry out the tasks required to support their health. Whether you want to know how to email, order your shopping online, video call family, or any day-to-day internet and technology related issues, we can support you to do this.
If you’d like to improve your confidence with your device, or have help with specific digital tasks, no matter how small, please get in touch with Katie on katie@wellmoor.org.uk or call 01647 478378.

Virtual wards
Previously, we have partnered with Devon Communities Together and other voluntary and community organisations in a pilot project to help support patients from Exeter hospital who require remote monitoring. The two week ‘virtual ward’ enabled clinicians to continue to monitor patients from the patient’s homes, checking oxygen levels for example, without them needing to be in hospital. Wellmoor provided support with the technology required to continue the monitoring, ensuring the patient feels comfortable with using it and that the right information is being communicated to the clinical teams.
