Managing your health often involves more than scheduled appointments. Changes in important health measurements can sometimes provide valuable information about a patient’s condition.
Care One Health uses remote monitoring to help healthcare providers stay informed about a patient’s health between visits and respond appropriately when changes are identified.
What Is Remote Monitoring?
Remote monitoring allows certain health measurements to be collected outside of a traditional healthcare setting and shared with the patient’s care team.
Depending on the patient’s needs, appropriate monitoring devices may help track vital signs and other health measurements from the comfort of home.
What Can Be Monitored?
Remote monitoring may include measurements such as:
-
Blood Pressure
-
Heart Rate
-
Weight
-
Oxygen Level
-
Other Health Measurements, as appropriate
The specific measurements and devices used will depend on the patient’s healthcare needs and clinical circumstances.
How Remote Monitoring Can Help
-
Identify Changes
Regular monitoring can help the care team identify changes in a patient’s health measurements.
-
Support Ongoing Care
Information collected between visits can provide additional insight into a patient’s health and support ongoing care management.
-
Encourage Proactive Care
When changes are identified, the care team can review the information and respond appropriately based on the patient’s circumstances.
-
Convenient Monitoring at Home
Remote monitoring can allow patients to track certain health measurements without needing to travel to a healthcare facility for every check.
Who May Benefit From Remote Monitoring?
Remote monitoring may be useful for patients who require ongoing observation of certain health measurements, particularly those managing chronic or complex health conditions.
The use of remote monitoring devices is determined based on the patient’s individual healthcare needs and clinical appropriateness.
Connected Care, Closer to Home
Remote monitoring is one part of Care One Health’s broader approach to coordinated, home-based healthcare.
By helping providers stay informed between visits, remote monitoring can support timely communication, ongoing health management, and continuity of care.
