Benefits of Telehealth
Telehealth helps people to:
- Feel empowered and manage their condition by taking their own readings
- Understand how to better self-manage where possible
- Maintain and improve their health and well-being
- Live independently
- Improve their quality of life
- Avoid periods of illness
- Avoid unnecessary hospital visits, admissions and GP visits.
It will also help you to spot any changes to your health, and work out any triggers causing those changes.
You may need to be visited by health care professionals. However, some of these visits may not be needed at times depending on the situation, as key information can be accessed directly from the the telehealth system.
Health professionals providing this service can tailor it to meet your needs. This means you will have your needs met no matter how simple or complex they may be.
