Telehealth Monitoring
FirstHealth Home Health provides telehealth monitoring for select high-risk patients with congestive heart failure or wound care needs that need constant monitoring. This state-of-the-art technology can send data over a simple phone line to a central monitoring station where a registered nurse can review it. The date includes blood pressure, temperature, blood sugar, pulse, weight and blood oxygen levels. Based on that data, the nurse can determine the best possible course of action.
