Telehealth devices

BloodPressure

Telehealth devices can be used to track different aspects of health and collect data over time. This data can then be sent to a remote caregiver or directly to a person’s primary care physician. Telehealth devices can also remind a user to do a health-related task, such as taking his blood pressure.

Video remote monitoring (with service through a vendor)

There are several options for video remote monitoring available through nationwide vendors who also provide remote monitoring staffing.

These options include:

  • One way video monitoring that allows a remote caregiver to see common areas of a home and can notify others or communicate directly with the person if issues arise
  • Two way video which allows the person to see the remote caregiver and interact with them directly both visually and verbally

Contact these vendors for additional information:
