Doccla

A London virtual ward company whose home monitoring kit lets NHS patients recover at home while clinicians keep watch.

About Doccla

Doccla provides remote monitoring technology for the NHS. Patients receive a tablet and wearable devices that measure vital signs at home, while healthcare staff monitor them from the hospital as if on a virtual ward.

It says it aims to be the "category leader for virtual healthcare". Its values are customer focus, integrity, teamwork, excellence and perseverance, and it puts patient safety first. Founder Martin Ratz has said virtual wards bring great benefits for patients.

A job listing places its headquarters in Hammersmith, London, with other offices in Denmark, Germany and Stockholm. It has worked with NHS partners including a Derbyshire care system.

It describes a team mixing technical, clinical, operational and commercial colleagues, expected to take ownership. Listed benefits include 25 days' leave, a £500 learning budget and enhanced parental pay. These are company claims.

The role we read needed experienced candidates, so we found no graduate or internship route. Check Doccla's careers page for current openings.
