Home Telemonitoring
Home telemonitoring is a service we offer at no cost to our patients in an effort to improve service by providing an easy-to-use monitor, which is programmed to meet the patient's needs and convenience. Vital signs, weights, and patient information can be transmitted up to four times a day to a nurse at our central station. The nurse monitors the results and responds as needed, which may include contacting the patient, patient's nurse, and/or patient's physician.
Patients who may benefit most from telemonitoring are those who:
Are
anxious about their condition
Have frequent worsening of their illness
such as CHF
Have frequent hospitalizations
Have frequent visits to the ER
Live in remote areas
Require more teaching
