Telehealth and remote monitoring: Transforming home care with a human touch

In the modern healthcare landscape, telehealth and remote monitoring stand out as revolutionary tools that have transformed the way we think about home care. These technologies have not only made healthcare more accessible but have also added a human touch to the treatment and monitoring of patients in the comfort of their own homes.

Telehealth is the use of digital information and communication technologies to access health care services remotely and manage your health care. Technologies can include computers and mobile devices, such as tablets and smartphones that your dedicated carer uses to improve or support health care services.

The goals of telehealth, sometimes called e-health or m-health (mobile health), include the following:

• Make health care easier to get for people who live in communities that are remote or in the country.

• Make services more easily offered or handy for people who have limited ability to move, time or transportation.

• Improve communication and coordination of care among health care team members and a person getting care.

• Technologies for direct communication enable carers to stay in touch with the cared-for person and healthcare professionals, facilitating better care coordination.

• Reduce the costs associated with travel and time off work for carers, making it a more economical.

• With telehealth devices, carers can monitor vital signs and alert healthcare professionals if there are any concerning changes, leading to timely interventions.

Technology has the potential to improve the quality of health care. And technology can make it easier for more people to get health care.

Telehealth makes health care more efficient, better coordinated and closer to home. You can go to a virtual visit anywhere such as at home or in your car. Virtual visits can also provide you with the choice to meet with dedicated carers who don't live where you do.
