Tele-Monitoring Program
|
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) or “telemonitoring” is a service that allows providers to monitor patient symptoms, vital signs, weight, and medication compliance remotely. RPM uses portable, easy-to-use equipment to send real-time health information to the provider. Patients with RPM services can receive more comprehensive management of their health, which can lead to more rapid stabilization and better overall health outcomes.
Our remote patient monitoring system can be helpful for patients with chronic conditions like congestive heart failure, lung disease and hypertension. It can also be useful for close monitoring of other fragile medical conditions or for monitoring during medication adjustments. The RPM nurse monitors patient information daily to determine how the patient is progressing. If the nurse believes that the patient is having significant changes, then the patient is contacted via telephone to determine the most appropriate plan. If you have any questions or would like more information about this service, please contact our office at 802-388-7259. |
