Less Time in the Hospital and More Time at Home
A high-tech solution
The tech pack includes secure, HIPAA compliant Wi-Fi; blood pressure monitors; any needed medical supplies; and a tablet that provides 24/7 virtual connection to Mayo Clinic experts. Patients also receive a schedule so they know what to expect and when. Everything is set up, connected and tested, and the patient receives a physical exam to ensure the transfer was safe and successful.
Letty, who has been by John’s side every step of the way, says that not having to travel to the hospital one more time during the pandemic and knowing they can reach a Mayo Clinic expert with the push of a button gives them both peace of mind.
“It’s a wonderful program and gives me freedom,” says John. “I can do my walks and go outside and do work in my garden.” https://mayocl.in/2V2bSHX
