National home care provider partners with the fastest growing remote monitoring company to begin providing telehealth at their Brooklyn branch.

Brooklyn, NY (PRWEB) - Personal-Touch Home Care, a national company with over 50 locations in 11 states, and Health Recovery Solutions (HRS), a software company started at Johns Hopkins University, began this week to provide innovative telehealth remote monitoring to its patients in their Brooklyn branch.

They will have access to HRS’s new Clinician Connect mobile app which allows nurses in the field to receive high risk alerts from the tablet monitors which the patients interact with. Home care nurses will be able to place video calls, phone calls, or text messages directly to the patient’s tablet.

It is intuitive and put together in a way that lets nurses and patients interact with it much easier.” On average, patient spend 24.6 minutes a day on HRS’s software.

HRS’s disease-specific software engages patients with education videos, teach-back quizzes, care plans and surveys, and allows for video conferencing with nurses and family members.
