Telehealth
Telehealth is a consistent, reliable and accurate remote monitoring of a patient's vital signs and predetermined health measures. Importantly, it enables the information to be recorded and monitored from the patient's own home. Entered into and recorded by a compact home monitor unit, the relevant data is relayed directly by telephone line to the preferred medical support facility, or physician, with privacy preserved. |
