VNHS Telemonitoring
 

 

Telemonitoring gives healthcare professionals more time to do what they do best – give you, their patients, compassionate, quality care.   

This is how it works.  Between visits from their home health nurse, patients daily check their own health indicators including blood pressure, heart rate and weight with the help of a state-of-the-art, easy-to-use device installed in their home.  With the click of a button, the information is sent to a specially-trained clinician at our office who reviews it.  If the clinician notices any significant or troubling changes, she notifies the patient’s regular home health nurse and, if needed, their doctor for additional follow up. 

Telemonitoring means peace of mind for patients, their home healthcare nurses, family members and physicians alike.

A recent patient satisfaction survey of telemonitored patients showed that an overwhelming 90 percent reported feeling more connected to their home healthcare provider and their doctor.   We offer this service knowing that telemonitoring and other technologies can augment, but never replace, the personal touch of a skilled and caring nurse.
