Gall pob meddygfa yng Nghymru gael mynediad i system newydd sy’n galluogi i bobl gael apwyntiadau ar\-lein gyda’u meddyg teulu a gweithwyr gofal iechyd proffesiynol eraill.


Drwy gydweithio, lluniodd Llywodraeth Cymru a TEC Cymru gynnig ar gyfer darparu’r gwasanaeth ymgynghoriadau fideo yn gyflym iawn i bob meddyg teulu yng Nghymru fel ymateb i bandemig y Coronafeirws (COVID\-19\). Roedd y gwasanaeth eisoes yn rhan o dreial ym Mwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Aneurin Bevan. 


Yn ogystal â helpu pobl i gadw at y rheolau aros gartref, bydd y system newydd yn galluogi i feddygon a nyrsys sy’n hunan\-ynysu, ond yn fodlon ac yn gallu gweithio, barhau i wasanaethu eu cymunedau. 


Bydd ymgynghoriadau o bell yn helpu meddygfeydd i gadw staff rheng flaen a’u cleifion yn ddiogel drwy leihau’r risg o ledaenu’r coronafeirws wrth i Gymru wynebu ail wythnos o reolau aros gartref llym.  


Dywedodd y Gweinidog ar gyfer Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol Vaughan Gething:



> Mae arloesi fel hyn yn galluogi’r llywodraeth i helpu staff rheng flaen i gadw pobl yn ddiogel ac yn iach yn ystod yr amseroedd digynsail yma. Mae hefyd yn golygu haen arall o warchodaeth i staff y GIG.  
> 
> 
> Rydyn ni’n newid y ffordd mae’r GIG yn gweithredu. Drwy gynnig apwyntiadau dros y ffôn ac ar fideo, gallwn leihau’r pwysau ar staff rheng flaen a rhoi cefnogaeth well i bobl gyda gwybodaeth a chyngor am gyswllt diangen. Rydyn ni’n edrych yn awr ar gam nesaf y gwasanaeth hwn, a fydd yn cynnwys ei ehangu i lefydd fel ysbytai.


Bydd apwyntiadau fideo’n cael eu cynnig os yw meddygon eisiau mwy o wybodaeth nag y gall galwad ffôn ei darparu. Yn yr achosion hyn, gall meddygfeydd ddarparu cyfarwyddiadau syml am sut gall pobl gael gafael ar y dechnoleg am ddim a hawdd ei defnyddio a fydd yn gweithio gyda’u ffôn clyfar, eu tabled neu eu cyfrifiadur personol. 


Bydd staff byrddau iechyd TEC Cymru sy’n gweithio gyda thimau rheng flaen ledled Cymru’n cael eu hyfforddi yn y system newydd, gyda 290 o feddygon teulu ar draws 73 o feddygfeydd wedi cael eu hyfforddi eisoes ar y platfform newydd. Mae mwy na 430 o ymgynghoriadau fideo wedi cael eu cynnal ers ei lansiad ar 16 Mawrth. 


Dywedodd Mike Ogonovsky, cyfarwyddwr cyswllt ar gyfer gwybodeg ym Mwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Aneurin Bevan:



> Mae’r rhaglen hon yn dangos sut rydyn ni’n ehangu ein hadnoddau i gefnogi clinigwyr sydd wedi gofyn am ffordd amgen o gyflwyno gofal i’w cleifion. Mae eisoes wedi rhoi llawer o foddhad cael adborth mor bositif gan glinigwyr a chleifion.


Dylai darparwyr gofal iechyd sydd eisiau cael gwybodaeth a hyfforddiant pellach am Wasanaeth Ymgynghoriadau Fideo GIG Cymru fynd i digitalhealth.wales/tec\-cymru/vc\-service.

All GP practices in Wales can now access a new system, which allows people to have online appointments with their doctor and other healthcare professionals.


Working together, the Welsh Government and TEC Cymru produced a proposal for the rapid delivery of the video consultation service for all GPs in Wales in response to the Coronavirus (COVID\-19\) pandemic. The service was already part of a trial within the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board.


As well as helping people keep to the stay\-at\-home rules, the new system will allow doctors and nurses who are self\-isolating, but willing and able to work, to continue to serve their communities.


Remote consultations will help practices keep frontline staff and their patients safe by reducing the risk of spreading coronavirus as Wales enters the second week of strict stay\-at\-home rules.


Minister for Health and Social Services Vaughan Gething said:



> Innovations such as this enables government to help frontline staff keep people safe and healthy during these unprecedented times. It also means another layer of protection for NHS staff.
> 
> 
> We are changing the way the NHS operates. By offering telephone and video appointments, we can reduce pressure on frontline staff and better support people with information and advice without unnecessary contact. We are now looking at the next phase of this service, which will include rolling this out into places like hospitals.


Video appointments will be offered if doctors want more information than a telephone call can provide. In these cases, surgeries can provide simple instructions about how people can access the free and easy\-to\-use technology that will work with their smartphone, tablet or PC.


Health board staff who are working with frontline teams throughout Wales will be trained in the system with 290 GPs across 73 practices having already been trained on the new platform. More than 430 video consultations have taken place since its launch on 16 March.


Mike Ogonovsky, associate director of informatics, at Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, said:



> This programme is a demonstration of how we are rolling out tools to support clinicians who have demanded an alternative way to deliver care to their patients. It’s already been deeply rewarding to get such positive feedback from clinicians and patients.
