My diverse experience supports my commitment to excellence and innovation in both healthcare and digital communication.
The Benefits of Telemedicine for Seniors
The emergence of telemedicine means that seniors don’t have to visit doctors physically, as often as they did before. After all, for some, it’s a feat just to even get to the office to make all your appointments. Telemedicine involves talking to doctors over the phone or with video conferencing, and uses remote technology to track vital signs and recognize early warning signs. Of course, some more serious admissions will involve a physical visit, but the majority of conditions can be managed with telemedicine. With this new technology, it can help seniors avoid hospital admissions, save money, reduces likelihood of a nursing home stay, saves you a lot of trips, you avoid hospital germs, and both you and your doctor will know when there’s a problem. Win-win for all involved.
