Connect
Keeping friends and families together, even when they’re miles apart
Since March last year, the world has come together to combat Covid-19, and Visionable’s virtual visiting technology went a little way in helping you stay connected during a time when most of us were kept apart. Connect ensures regular interactions between families can take place when in-person visits are not possible.
What is Connect?

Hear from our customers using Connect
“More cheerfully, our nurses say that when patients on our elderly wards make calls you can hear kids shouting with excitement because they are able to see their grandparents for the first time in weeks.”
